Enspijk was first mentioned in 1148 as Inspic, and means promontory. The en (inwards) was added to distinguish from neighbouring Spijk.[3] Enspijk developed as a concentrated esdorp perpendicular to the dike of the Linge. The Dutch Reformed Church dates from the early 15th century and is a replacement of a 13th century church. The tower was built at the end of the 15th century.[4] Huis te Enspijk was a castle. It was probably built in the 15th century, and was demolished in 1828.[5] In 1840, it was home to 247 people.[6]
