Moordrecht (population: 8,112 in January 2007) is a town and a former municipality in the province of South Holland, the Netherlands, situated along the river Hollandse IJssel.
In September 2006, 93% of the population of Moordrecht choose by referendum to pursue a merger with the neighboring municipalities Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel and Zevenhuizen-Moerkapelle. Only 7% choose to merge with Gouda. Based on this result, the town council decided to form the new municipality Zuidplas in 2010 with Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel and Zevenhuizen-Moerkapelle.
International footballer Memphis Depay was born there.[1]
