Westerbork is a village located in the municipality of Midden-Drenthe, in the northeastern province of Drenthe, the Netherlands. This small community is situated in a rural area characterized by its natural beauty, including forests and heathlands typical of the region.

Westerbork is perhaps best known for its historical significance during World War II, as it was the site of Camp Westerbork, a transit camp established by Nazi Germany during the occupation of the Netherlands. Today, the village continues to honor this difficult history through the Camp Westerbork Memorial Centre, which serves as an important educational site and place of remembrance.

Apart from its historical importance, Westerbork is also recognized for its contributions to astronomy, being home to the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope, a major facility for radio astronomy research. The village combines its historical legacy with modern scientific endeavors, offering visitors a unique blend of cultural and educational experiences.
