Marum (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈmaːrʏm] ⓘ) is a town and a former municipality in the northeastern Netherlands. The municipality was merged into the municipality of Westerkwartier on 1 January 2019.[3]

History

Marum is located in the peat area, and was an agricultural village.[4] It was first mentioned in 1385 and probably means village near the lake.[5] In 1795, it was home to 351 people.[6]

Marum started to industrialise in the early 20th century,[7] the tram from Groningen to Drachten resulted in further growth.[4] The construction of the A7 motorway has resulted in the development of a suburban town.[7] In 2019, it ceased to be an independent municipality and was merged into Westerkwartier.[3]
