History
The village was first mentioned in 1259 as "curtem Durse". The etymology is unclear.[1] In 1258, Template:Ill awarded former possessions of the monastery Template:Ill, who moved to Assen, to Hako Stevenzoon van Hardenberg. The lands would become known as Deurze. There was a wind mill, however it was destroyed by Christoph Bernhard von Galen, the Prince-Bishop of Münster in 1672 who had built a sconce near the village for his failed invasion of the Netherlands.[2]
Deurze was home to 58 people in 1840.[2]
