History
History
It was first mentioned in 1133 as "de Islemuthen", and means "the mouth of the IJssel river". It was a dike village along a former arm of the IJssel which became a little stream after the Mastenbroek was completed. In 1646, a bridge was built to Kampen. The Dutch Reformed Church dates from 1200, but was extensively rebuilt in 1911 to 1912. In 1840, it was home to 520 people. In 1865, Kampen railway station was opened. It was built on the side of IJsselmuiden, and was originally planned to be located there. However it was decided to build the station 350 metres to the west on a plot of land belonging to Kampen.
