Ennemaborg

The Ennemaborg is a borg in Midwolda. Formally, it is actually not a borg but a country house, because noble privileges were lacking. The landed gentry could not develop in Oldambt because the city of Groningen took control of this area early on. In the 19th century it became a peat bog.

Behind the borg lies a forest of 2.5 kilometers long and 300 meters wide, which like the borg is owned by the Groninger Landscape Foundation. In front of the borg is a lawn of garden plants such as country crocuses, wood yellow stars, snowdrops, star hyacinths and winter aconites. Next to the borg is an approximately 200-year-old beech tree that survived the great storm of 1976. However, the old lime trees in front of the coach house were replanted in the 1980s. Behind the borg is a pond, which may have once been part of the old moat.
