The polder Oud-Herkingen was probably first diked in 1420. At that time, this polder belonged to the monastery of the Regulars of Rugge in Brielle and to the Carthusian monastery in Zelem. These monasteries rented the polder to shepherds. This polder did not exist for long. In 1484, Herkingen was diked again. On 9 July of the same year, the chapel that had been built was elevated to parish church by the bishop of Utrecht, David of Burgundy. The chapel was dedicated to Saint Cornelius and was incorporated into the monastery of the Regulars of Rugge. This polder did not exist for long either, because a flood was already reported in 1511. The chapel that had been built was probably washed away. Many floods would follow in the 16th century.
