History.
Oud-Wulven was originally a "heerlijkheid" (fiefdom). In 1545 it was combined with the neighbouring "heerlijkheid" Waaijen. "Oud-Wulven en Waaijen" remained a separate entity until 1811, when it merged into Houten. This didn't last long: in 1818 they were combined with the "heerlijkheden" Wulven, Heemstede, Grote Koppel, Kleine Koppel, Maarschalkerweerd, and Slagmaat to a single municipality called "Oud-Wulven.
Johannes Rothe was Lord of Oud-Wulven and Wayen in the Netherlands (1658–1671). He was a prophetic preacher and Fifth Monarchist. He married in 1660 in Goring House.
The municipality Oud-Wulven had an area of about 10.7 km2, and more than 250 inhabitants in the middle of the 19th century. The municipality was merged back with Houten on September 8, 1857.
Modern day.
Nowadays, the hamlet of Oud-Wulven has approximately 170 inhabitants.
