Beuningen (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈbøːnɪŋə(n)] ⓘ) is a village in the eastern Netherlands. It is located in the municipality of Losser, Overijssel and situated along the river Dinkel, in a mainly rural area, approximately one kilometre south of Denekamp.

History

[edit]

The village was first mentioned in the late-10th century as "in Baningi", and means "settlement of the people of Bono (person)".[3] Beuningen started as a collection of farms south of Denekamp. It started to develop after World War II.[4]

The estate Borgbeuningen was built in 1709 on the former site of a medieval castle. The estate is surrounded by a large park whose lanes are aligned with the church towers of the region. In the centre of the forest, there is a rectangular and crucifix-shaped pond.[4]

Beuningen was home to 699 people in 1840.[5] Beuningen used to be part of the parish Denekamp, in 1818 the boermarke (predecessor of municipality) Beuningen became part of the municipality of Losser.[5]

A Roman Catholic church from 1948 is located in the village,[6] and Beuningen was elevated to a village.[5] A campsite, a soccer field and a forest are located just outside the village.

[edit]

Many scenes of the fictional village Dinkelo in the regional soap opera Van Jonge Leu en Oale Groond were shot in Beuningen..[7]
