Holysloot

Holysloot is a village in the Dutch province of North Holland. It is a part of the municipality of Amsterdam, and lies about 9 km northeast of the city centre. The name "Holysloot" probably derives from an expression for a "low-lying area at a ditch".
Holysloot is a part of the "deelgemeente" (sub-municipality) Amsterdam-Noord. The village has about 160 inhabitants.
Holysloot was a separate municipality between 1 May 1817 and 1 January 1818, when it was merged with Ransdorp.
