Heikant, Helvoirt
Heikant is a former hamlet in the Dutch province of North Brabant. It was located about 2 km northwest of Helvoirt (now municipality of Haaren).
The hamlet is mentioned by the 19th-century historian A.J. van der Aa,[1] and shown on a map of the area.[2] It is no longer considered to be a separate hamlet, although the houses and a street named "De Heikant" still exist.
Heikant should not be confused with any of the other hamlets named Heikant in the Netherlands.
