Noordgouwe is a village in the Dutch province of Zeeland. It is a part of the municipality of Schouwen-Duiveland, and lies about 12 km north of Zierikzee.
== History == The village was first mentioned in 1395 or 1396 as Noortgouda. It has been named after De Gouwe river which separated Schouwen from Duiveland. Noord (north) was the location of the polder on the island. In 1374, permission was granted to polder the salt marshes. Noordgouwe is a circular village around a church which is surrounded by a moat. The village used to be a heerlijkheid.
