"The name Anderlecht can be found for the first time in 1046. During the 11th century, the area consisted of the seigneuries Anderlecht and Aa and the villages Cureghem and Neerpede. The current municipality came into being as a result of the growing together of the lordships and villages. In 1394, Duchess Johanna of Brabant added Anderlecht to Brussels. It was not until the end of the Ancien Régime that it became an independent municipality.\r\n\r\nIn 1795, Anderlecht became the principal town of a canton. This canton had 11,400 inhabitants and 11 municipalities: Anderlecht, Dilbeek, Groot-Bijgaarden, Itterbeek, Jette, Laaken, Sint-Agatha-Berchem, Sint-Jans-Molenbeek, Sint-Maartens-Bodegem, Vlezenbeek and Wambeek. The canton had extensive pastures, which made it known for its rich grain production.\r\n\r\nIn 1890, it became the seat of a peace court. Due to language laws, the Dutch-speaking municipalities were removed from the canton in 1963. This meant that only the municipalities of Anderlecht and Sint-Agatha-Berchem belonged to the canton."@eng . _:B9e3c90b3b1e99ccf00024397816419f5 . .
