Zijderveld is a village in the Dutch province of Utrecht (province). It is located approximately 6 km northeast of Leerdam within the municipality of Vijfheerenlanden.

The village, initially referenced as Zijtwendervelt in 1282, derives its name from the Dutch expression for "field at a sideways dike". The Dutch Reformed Church, dating back to the 15th century, was rebuilt in 1830. In 1840, the village had a population of 532.
