The village was first mentioned in 1477 as Wer-steens, and means "parcel of land of Steene (person)".[4] In 1840, Warstiens was home to 27 people. In 1882, a new Dutch Reformed church was constructed in the village. The bell from 1252 of the old church is nowadays on display at the [Rijksmuseum](/source/Rijksmuseum) in Amsterdam. The church is used for service twice a month.[5]
