Oldambt, Municipality in Groningen Province, Netherlands
Oldambt spans across 295 square kilometers, featuring the expansive Oldambtmeer lake and numerous agricultural fields along the Wadden Sea coastline.
The municipality formed in 2010 through the consolidation of Reiderland, Scheemda, and Winschoten, marking a significant administrative restructuring in Groningen Province.
The region maintains strong agricultural traditions with extensive rapeseed cultivation, while its three preserved windmills in Winschoten represent traditional Dutch engineering.
The A7 highway connects the municipality to Groningen city and Germany, while multiple train stations serve communities through the Harlingen-Nieuweschans railway line.
The Blauwestad development project transformed the area with an 800-hectare artificial lake, creating new residential zones and water recreation opportunities.
