In 1596, the town bought the fiefdom Beukelsdijk Blommersdijk and Cool of Jonkheer Jacob van Almonde. At Royal Decree of 20 september 1809 was the craft Beukelsdijk, East and West, to an independent municipality called Cool Blommersdijk, exalted. In 1811 was Cool by Rotterdam annexed. In addition to the handicraft one had also added the polder Cool. This was between the RotteandRotterdam ; This was raised in 1925 . A part of the territory of Cool was already in 1358 at the city drawn after the license of Duke Albrecht of Bavaria in order to dig canals to the city and the city area with Rodezand in the handicraft Cool. The city henceforth separated Coolvest and handicraft.
