Noordbroek (Gronings:Noordbrouk) is a village in the Dutch province of Groningen. It is located in the municipality of Midden-Groningen, about 8 km northeast of Hoogezand.

Noordbroek was a separate municipality until 1965, when it became part of Oosterbroek.[3]

History

The village was first mentioned in 1273 as "in Broke", and means north swampy forest. Noord (north) has been added to distinguish between Zuidbroek.[4] Noordbroek is a road village which developed in the Late Middle Ages on a sandy ridge at the border with Oldambt.[5]

The Dutch Reformed church dates from the 14th century and has a detached tower. It was restored between 1968 and 1972, and the modifications of 1840 were undone.[5] The former town hall was built in 1880 in neoclassic style.[5] The grist mill De Noordstar was built in 1849, but is no longer in service.[6]

Noordbroek was home to 1,521 people in 1840.[7] It was an independent municipality until 30 June 1965 when it was merged into Oosterbroek. Since 2018, it is part of the municipality of Midden-Groningen.[7]
