The village was first mentioned in 944 as Brunnenuur, and means "terp with a spring".[5] The Dutch Reformed church was built in the 13th century. In 1840, it was home to 84 people.[4]
In 1910, the terp of Bornwird was excavated and prehistoric urns were discovered. In 1966 and 1967, archaeological excavation was performed in Bornwird during the construction of the Holwerd to Dokkum road. A stone axe, flint artefacts, and potsherds were discovered from the Late Bronze Age proving that the most northern area which was regularly flooded had been settled for a long time.[4][6]
