District of Zoetermeer in South Holland, Netherlands From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seghwaert is a district in Zoetermeer that was formed around the old village of Zegwaart (or Zegwaard), which fused with the municipality of Zoetermeer in 1935, using the archaic spelling of the locale's name. The old Zegwaart was a ribbon development along what remains until today as Zegwaartseweg, which is perpendicular to Dorpstraat. The district is divided into Seghwaert-Oost (2723), -Midden (2724) and -Noord (2727).
