The early 1600s were the years that the name Crèvecoeur surfaced in writing. Crève-coeur, literally means 'heart pain', and is a name that has been used for other fortresses as well. An older guess why this fortress was so named, was that it gave pain to the citizens of 's-Hertogenbosch, who were cut off from the Meuse by this fortress. Crèvecoeur indeed cut off the city from communication upstream on the Meuse, but at the time the Dieze was a dead end.
