白土镇是广东省肇庆市高要区东南部的一个镇，在珠江三角洲经济区与肇庆市区之间，肇江公路从镇上穿过。博雅地名网称全镇约108.4平方公里，现下辖7个社区、23个行政村；在2020年第七次全国人口普查中，镇人口6.91万，居高要区各街道乡镇第3位。1986年撤区建镇，2014年7月入选全国重点镇。[1]

得名与历史沿革[edit]

关于镇名，当地有两种说法。其一，镇域及附近的岗、田、塘之下多为白色的泥土，因此叫白土；其二是传说，早年一位皇妃携皇子逃难到此，把此地称作「皇土」，又将「皇」字拆成「白」「王」，再把「王」字少写一横，便成了「白土」。另有一处介绍说，镇名来自此地蕴藏的白色铝矾土。[1][2]

据介绍，白土建镇于清代，当时属三班五区的白土安平堡；1937年5月改称白土镇，属第三区。1949年解放后先隶高要第七区，辖白土、朗鹤两个乡，其后的合作社、公社等阶段见下。[2]

另一份沿革则从明代说起：明代境域属迁修乡白土都，清末属五区宋隆；1943年3月分为白土镇与安联等四个乡；到1953年，设在白土圩的第七区管辖此地。1958年10月，同周边地方合设金龙公社，次年又析出白土公社；1983年撤公社设区，1986年白土区改为白土镇。[1]

地理与人口[edit]

据博雅地名网转载的概况，白土镇位于高要东南部，东经112度36分、北纬22度59分一带，四周与蚬岗、回龙、蛟塘、莲塘、金渡等镇相邻；肇江公路穿过全镇，另有广肇高速公路和西江水运。该介绍还说，白土被列为高要市区的发展组团。[2]

面积一说约108.4平方公里。人口方面，较早的介绍称人口7.2万多，下设村委会28个、居民办事处2个，自然村35条；博雅地名网的镇页则写作7个社区、23个行政村，并引第七次全国人口普查结果，镇人口6.91万。[1][2]

荣誉[edit]

博雅地名网列出：2014年7月，白土镇被七部委（含住房城乡建设部）确定为「全国重点镇」；2019年度全国综合实力千强镇榜单排第399名；2020年度广东百强镇榜单排第78名；2024年度全国千强镇排第988名，2025年排第977名；2026年3月认定为广东省第三批「百千万工程」典型村镇。[1]

名胜古迹[edit]

黎雄才故居在白土镇坑尾村，是肇庆市文物保护单位，被说成见证了黎雄才及其祖辈的生活环境和他早年的部分经历。坑尾村今属白联社区，村中有黎氏聚居的传统大屋群。[3][6]

吴桂丹墓在久留村，为清代墓葬，坐北朝南，墓前有三道护墙，总面阔10.4米、进深11米，两侧第一道护墙嵌有2块砚石碑志，记述墓主生平。吴桂丹（1855—1902年）籍贯高要水坑，即今肇庆市鼎湖区境内，光绪年间中进士，入翰林院为庶吉士，再授编修；据介绍他是物理学家吴大猷的祖父。[4]

著名人物[edit]
