A well-known legend is that Cuijk once had city rights but sold them to the village of Grave, which is now a city. Well, is this really true? The name Cuijk is derived from the Celtic word 'Keukja', which means 'bend' or 'curve'. This refers to the bend or curve in the Maas at the height of Cuijk. 'Keukja' was later corrupted by the Romans to 'Ceuclum' from which the name Cuijk eventually arose.
