History
The village was first mentioned around 1200 as de Ettene. The etymology is unclear.[2] The village started on a river dune along the Oude IJssel. The Dutch Reformed Church there dates from the 15th century with 11th century elements.[3] Castle Schuylenburgh was a medieval castle in the village that was bombed twice during World War II, and later demolished.[4] In 1840, the village was home to 292 people.[5]
