Norg is a small, very old village in the northeastern Netherlands. It is located in the municipality of Noordenveld, Drenthe. As of 1 January 2008, Norg had a population of 3737, in comparison to a population of 3840 on 1 January 2004. Written records from the Middle Ages refer to a ''Nurch'' or ''Norch'' in the area. The oldest known remains of a settlement in the area date from 650-750 BC. The most important monument is the 13th century Romanesque church on the brink, which has a saddle-rooftower. Norg has five brinks. In Norg there are two windmills. One of these, ''Noordenveld'', is a corn mill and was built in 1878. The other, ''De Hoop'', is the only windmill in the Netherlands with Bilau sails. Until 1 January 1998, Norg was an independent municipality. Since the municipal reclassification of the province Drenthe, Norg is a part of the Noordenveld municipality. ==External links== * (The emblem of Norg ) * Map of the former municipality in 1868. * (Aerophoto of Norg ) * (Gemeentenoordenveld.nl ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Norg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
