Norg is a small, very old village of the Noordenveld municipality in the province Drenthe, in the Netherlands. As of January 1, 2004, Norg had a population of 3840.
Written records from the Middle Ages refer to a Nurch or Norch in the area. The oldest known remains of a settlement in the area date from 650-750 BC. The most important monument is the 13th century Roman church on the brink, which has a saddle-rooftower. Norg has five brinks. In Norg there are two windmills. One of these, De Noordenveld, is a corn mill and was built in 1878.
Until January 1, 1998, Norg was an independent municipality. Since the municipal reclassification of the provence Drenthe, Norg is a part of the Noordenveld municipality.
