Nieuw-Roden is a village in the Netherlands and is part of the Noordenveld municipality in Drenthe.

During the 19th century, peat to the west of Roden was excavated, and a new settlement appeared. Originally, it contained sod houses which were replaced in the early 20th century. [3] In the 1960s, Huizing built his own sod house, and opened it for visitors in 1965. [4] In the 1990s, it was demolished, due to vandalism. In 1903, a school was built and the church dates from 1922. Nowadays it is a single urban area with Roden but remains a separate village. [3]
