History

It was first mentioned in the 13th century Cappelghe, and means chapel. It refers to a private chapel by the Oenema family near their house.{{cite web|url=https://etymologiebank.nl/trefwoord/terkaple |title=Terkaple - (geografische naam) |website=Etymologiebank |access-date=30 March 2022 |language=nl}} Most of the land around Terkaple and the neighbouring villages of Terherne and Akmarijp were owned by the Oeneme family. The Dutch Reformed Church was built in 1854 as a replacement of a medieval church on the same location of the chapel. In 1840, Terkaple was home to 107 people.{{cite web|url=https://www.plaatsengids.nl/terkaple |title=Terkaple |website=Plaatsengids |access-date=30 March 2022 |language=nl}}

Before 2014, Terkaple was part of the Skarsterlân municipality and before 1984 it was part of Utingeradeel.
