Dutch-German border in Glanerbrug

Glanerbrug ( German  Glanerbrücke ) is a village in the east of Enschede in the Twente region , which is in the Dutch province of Overijssel . It is right on the border with the German city of Gronau . The border in this area is the Glanerbeek ( Beek means brook ). Politically, Glanerbrug belongs to Enschede. Its name is borrowed from the bridge over the Glanebach.

The village has its own public indoor swimming pool and a tennis court. The Catholic Church OL Vrouwe van de Allerheiligste Rozenkrans dates from 1902/1903 and was designed by Alfred Tepe , one of the most important neo-Gothic architects in the Netherlands.

Glanerbrug has a stop on the Enschede – Gronau railway line, which is served every half hour alternately by the regional train lines RB 64 Euregio-Bahn ( Münster – Enschede ) and RB 51 Westmünsterland-Bahn ( Dortmund – Enschede ). These lines are operated exclusively by DB , as there is no track connection to the Dutch network at Enschede station.

On April 7, 1990, a meteorite fell through the roof of a residential building, the Glanerbrug meteorite .

In his novel De Hunnen , Jan Cremer describes this area in detail, in particular the events during the Second World War . Glanerbrug achieved national fame not least through Herman Finkers , who reported several times during a news parody that Glanerbrug would now be equipped with cable television and that no date was known when the village would be connected to the general sewer system.

In the early Glanerbrug was noughties the joppiesaus invented.

In March 2014, the football club VV Glanerbrug was dissolved.
