Wierdedorp Eenum
The Eenum mound was inhabited as early as 500 BC. As this mound has been excavated, only the house mound remains. The Romanesque church in Eenum dates from the 12th century.
The remarkable Arp Schnitger organ in the church dates from 1703. Schnitger earned Groningen the reputation of being the region with the richest organ heritage in Europe. Virtually all of Schnitger’s surviving organs are located in northern Germany and the northern Netherlands, the majority of which are in Groningen. Just outside the village lies one of Groningen’s highest mounds, the Eenumerhoogte (formerly also known as Oostrum). For a long time, a farmhouse stood on this mound, but it was demolished at the end of the 20th century due to dilapidation and replaced by a modern house.
