Berendrecht is a neighbourhood and former village in Antwerp province in Belgium. Its name means "dike of the bear", according to the area's dialect, or "dike of a man called Bear", or "passage by the marsh". But drecht or tricht means "ferry" or "crossing", and ber or bere in Indo-European means "dam", "defence against water": the resulting meaning is "river crossing at a dam". The Berendrecht Lock is the world's largest lock, giving entrance to the Port of Antwerp.
