Zevender was a separate municipality from 1817 to 1857, when it was merged with Willige Langerak.[3]

It was first mentioned in 1247 as Zeuendre. The etymology is unclear.[4] The postal authorities have placed it under Lopik.[5] There are no place name signs. There used to be a castle in Zevender. It was besieged in 1300 and 1304, but burnt down in 1518. In 1540, Charles V ordered the removal of the ruins. In 1840, Zevender was home to 129 people.[2]
