History

It was mentioned around 1390 as Groot en Klein-Zwtwike, and means "southern neighbourhood". [2] It is not a statistical entity, [3] and the postal authorities have placed it under Epe. [4] In 1840, it was home to 533 people. Nowadays, it consists of about 150 houses. [5]

In the 17th century, there were several paper mills in Zuuk. [5] The Zuukermolen is a watermill which was originally from the 18th century. In 1990, it was restored, and generates electricity. [6] The hamlet was cut in two by the construction of the A50 motorway. [5]
