Schaesberg ( li, D'r Sjeet ) is a neighbourhood of Landgraaf and former village in the Dutch province of Limburg. History The village was first mentioned in 16th century as Gaesberg. The etymology is unknown. Schaesberg developed in the 17th century between the Schaesberg and Strijthagen castles from the 13th century. In 1618, it became a ''heerlijkheid''. In 1661, it became part of the Spanish Netherlands, and in 1713 an enclave of the Austrian Netherlands within the Dutch Republic. In 1785, it became part of the Dutch Republic. The Catholic Peter and Paul Church was founded in 1648. In 1699, it was expanded and a tower was attached. Strijthagen Castle was built in 1530, but probably had a 13th century predecessor.
