History
The village was first mentioned in 1310 as "in Hesselrevene", and means "new bog".[3] Nijeveen is a road village which started as a peat excavation settlement.[4]
In 1477, a piece of land was purchased by the farmers in the centre of the hamlet to built a church and clergy house.[3] The church was enlarged in 1627 and the 18th century. The tower dates shortly after 1477, but has a date of 1683 when it is probably restored or rebuilt.[4]
Nijeveen was home to 390 people in 1840.[5]
Since 1976 there is a German windmill named De Sterrenberg which has a cap winded by a fantail.[4] Nijeveen was a separate municipality until 1998, when it was amalgamated with Meppel.[6]
