Kijfhoek was a municipality (gemeente) in Zuid-Holland, Netherlands from 1 Apr 1817 through 19 Aug 1857, after which it was merged into Groote Lindt.

Groote Lindt was itself merged into Zwijndrecht on 6 Sep 1881.

It has a four-tier place name referencing Zwijndrecht because it ceased to be an independent municipality (zelfstandige gemeente) before 1900 and that was the municipality it was part of at that time.

Because it has a four-tier place name, its sources will have four-tier place names too.
