**Deelen** is a hamlet in the [Dutch](/source/Netherlands) province of [Gelderland](/source/Gelderland). It is largely in the municipality of [Ede, Netherlands](/source/Ede%2C_Netherlands), but a small part lies in the municipality of [Arnhem](/source/Arnhem).[3]

It was first mentioned in the 13th century as Deijle, and means "parcel of ground".[4]

Deelen is best known for the [Deelen Air Base](/source/Deelen_Air_Base), a military airfield close to the village. The airport was built in 1913 as a subsidiary of [Soesterberg Air Base](/source/Soesterberg_Air_Base). During the German occupation, it was enlarged into a big airfield measuring 40 square kilometres (15 sq mi). There is a museum on the airbase dedicated to its history.[3]
