History


In 1832, the Lutterhoofdwijk canal was dug as a side canal of the Dedemsvaart [nl] to excavate the peat in the area, and a settlement developed along the canal.[3]

On 17 October 1857, it was first mentioned as De Krim (Dutch for Crimea).[4] That year, there was a riot among the peat workers which was suppressed by the Royal Marechaussee; the heavy-handedness of the police action was compared to the Crimean War.[5][3] De Krim is a popular place name, and occurs 17 times in the Netherlands,[6] including the nearby Nieuwe Krim which begins with Nieuw (New) to distinguish from this village.[7]

In 1862, De Krim obtained an official concession to excavate the peat.[8] From 1890 onwards, the economy was based on potatoes, and in 1906, a potato starch factory opened. In 1911, the factory closed, but reopened as a cooperative and was renamed Onder Ons (Between Us).[3] The factory closed in 1990.[8] In 2004, the former rinse water basin of the factory was turned into a nature area and bird reserve.[9] A watchtower has been constructed for the birdwatchers.[10]

Up to 2000, the main settlement was part of the municipality of Gramsbergen, however the remainder was part of Hardenberg. On 1 January 2001, Gramsbergen was merged into Hardenberg.[8]
