Panheel is a village in the Dutch province of Limburg. It is a part of the municipality of Maasgouw, and lies about 9 km south-west of Roermond. The village was first mentioned in 1417 or 1418 as Panhedel. The etymology is unclear.[3] Panheel was home to 175 people in 1840. In 1875, a chapel was built. Panheel was never elevated to a parish,[4] however it is considered a village by the municipality.[5] The Boschmolenplas is a lake which formed as a result of gravel excavation. It has a diameter of 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) and has clear water with a visibility of 12 metres. It is therefore, a popular diving spot.[4]
