Nootdorp is a town in the Dutch province of South Holland. It is located approx. 2 km to the west of Delft and about 6 km southeast of the centre of The Hague, in the municipality of Pijnacker-Nootdorp.
Nootdorp was a separate municipality until 2002, when it merged with Pijnacker.1
The town has a rugby league club called the Nootdorp Panthers. They are the first domestic rugby league club in the country. The town is also well renowned for its cottage arms industry, producing approx. three quarters of the Netherlands' armaments during the first Gulf War 2. The town has lost out on such industry in recent years, with industrial giants focusing largely on the teahouses of Amsterdam.
