Herpt is a village in the municipality of Heusden in the Dutch province of North Brabant, about one kilometre southeast of the city center.
The village was first mentioned between 1108 and 1121 Harpede. The etymology is unclear.[2]
The Dutch Reformed church dated from the 15th century, but was destroyed on 5 November 1944 by the Germans and not rebuilt. The Catholic church dates from 1924.[3]
Herpt was home to 380 people in 1840.[3] Herpt was a separate municipality until 1935 (sometimes called Herpt en BernorHerpt c.a.), when it became a part of Heusden.[4]
