Bronneger is a small village in the Dutch province of Drenthe. It is a part of the municipality of Borger-Odoorn, and lies about 18 km east of Assen.
History
The village was first mentioned between 1381 and 1383 as "te Bronyncgem", and means "settlement of the people of Bruno (person)".[1] Bronneger is an esdorp which developed as a satellite of Drouwen. It is an elongated settlement without a church.[2]
Bronneger was home to 90 people in 1840.[3] In the 1990s, there was a stupa and Buddhist monastery in Bronneger, however it moved to Makkinga. The owner was later involved in a sexual abuse scandal and the monastery has since been dissolved.[3][4]
Dolmen

The site was investigated by Albert Egges van Giffen in 1918, and much pottery was discovered. The cellar measured 6.50 by 2.20 metres and had a height of 1.50 to 1.70 metres. A missing side stone was discovered in the cellar and has been placed back in its original position.[5]
