The Rensumaborg is a deposit in Uithuizermeeden. The building is first mentioned around 1500. In 1695 the deposit came into the possession of the Alberda van Menkema family when Menno Alberda bought it. In 1710 the deposit was renovated and got its current appearance.
After economic hardship, the deposit was auctioned in 1829 and lost its function as a residence. For a long time the deposit served as a horticultural school.
In 1996 the deposit was bought by the Rensuma Boon Foundation and the estate was restored to its original state. The deposit has a 17th, 18th and 19th century interior. The deposit cannot be viewed, but the site is open to the public.
