History


Around 1870, Barger-Oosterveld started as a settlement of sod houses to excavate the peat. Later farmers moved into the area. Most of the settlers came from neighbouring Germany.[3] It was first mentioned in 1899 as Bargeroosterveld, and means "eastern field of Barge".[4] In 1932, it was home to 954 people.[5]

In 1978, the village was annexed by neighbouring Emmen, and has become a neighbourhood.[3]

On 9 March 1957, the Temple of Barger-Oosterveld was discovered. The temple was a wooden construction of two by two metres surrounded by a circle of stones. It clearly served a religion function, however the details have been lost in antiquity. The wood has been dated to 1478 to 1470 BC. The temple is located in the Drents Museum.[6]
