It was first mentioned in 1846 as Kolonie No 7. It was founded as work colony of the Maatschappij van Weldadigheid. In 1907, it was named Boschoord, and Bosch is a reference to Johannes van de Bosch, the founder of Maatschappij van Weldadigheid.[3] Landgoed Boschoord is still owned by the company, and has become a 650 hectares (1,600 acres) nature area which consists of forest and moorland.[4]
