Noorddijk was a separate municipality until 1969, when it was merged with the city of Groningen.[3]


History


The village was first mentioned in 1299 as "de Northdic", and means northern dike. North is relative to the city of Groningen.[4] Noorddijk dates in the Early Middle Ages when the raised bog of the Hunze [nl] estuary was being cultivated, and Noorddijk became a linear road village on the dike.[5]

The nave of the Dutch Reformed church dates from around 1250. The church was enlarged around 1550, and the tower was constructed in 1648.[5] The polder mill Noordermolen was built in 1888. In 1963, an electro motor was installed in the wind mill. It was restored in 1980.[6]

Noorddijk was an independent municipality, however the town hall was located in Ruischerbrug [nl]. The village was home to 199 people in 1840.[7]

In 1969, Noorddijk was merged into the municipality of Groningen, and the neighbourhood Lewenborg was built to the south-west side.[5] The village of Oosterhoogebrug [nl] was annexed, and is nowadays a neighbourhood of Groningen.[7] Even though Noorddijk remained a separate village, the postal authorities have placed it under Groningen,[8] and its small population is added to the total of the city.[1]
