History

The first mention of the village in writing is from the year 1121 as Wansveld, and means "field of Warin or Warni (person)".[1] Warnsveld developed in the Middle Ages along the Berkel.[2]

Warnsveld's Template:Ill (Church of Saint Martin) has a tower from around 1100. In the 15th century, both the church and tower were enlarged. The church was restored between 1954 and 1957, and the 19th century modifications were undone.[2]

The former havezate 't Velde was first mentioned in 1326. Shortly after 1535 it redesigned in early Renaissance style. It was extensively modified and enlarged in 1701.[2] It is nowadays used by the police academy.[3]

Warnsveld was home to 505 people in 1840.[3] In 1841, the road between Zutphen and Lochem was paved, and estates were built along the road.[2]

Warnsveld was a separate municipality until 2005, when it was merged with Zutphen.[4] The former municipality had a population of about 9,000, and covered both the village of Warnsveld and nearby Warken.
