Reutum is a village in the Dutch province of Overijssel. It is a part of the municipality of Tubbergen, and lies about 10 km northwest of Oldenzaal.
Reutum was first attested in the late-10th century as Riatnon, and means "settlement near reed". [3] The village developed along the Reutumse Es. [4] Reutum and neighbour Haarle were home to 670 people in 1840. [5]
The church is dedicated to St. Simon and Judas, and was constructed in 1811. [4] The windmill is called "De Vier Winden" (The four winds), and dates from 1862. [4] Another point of interest is the double sluice in the Almelo-Nordhorn canal.
