Nieuw-Bergen (pronounced as /nl/; li|Ni-j-Berge pronounced as /li/) is a town in the Dutch province of Limburg. It is a part of the municipality of Bergen (L.) and lies about 28 km north of Venlo. Nieuw-Bergen was officially founded on 9 July 1963 as the new settlement.[3]
After the destruction of Bergen in 1944–1945, a new settlement was built further to the east. Construction started in 1955.[4] In 1969, the town hall of the municipality was built in Nieuw Bergen.[5] In 1975, a church was built. In 2015, a shopping mall was built with apartments and a distinct high tower to give the village a landmark.[4]
In 1988, two British Royal Air Force off-duty soldiers were killed in the town by a bomb attached to their car by Irish Republican Army (IRA).[6]
