story

After the reclamation edict of King Frederick II of Prussia, many new settlements were founded in East Friesland to secure space and livelihood for the growing population.

Under the Dutch occupation in 1810, the settlement "Tüssen Bargen" (Z Zwischenbergen) was founded between the Voßbarg colony and the Windbarg in Neudorf. It was popularly known as "the Dutch colony". In the long term, the High German name Zwischenbergen prevailed.

The initially predominantly operated agriculture with dairy cattle farming has now declined to a few remaining farms. Some handicraft businesses have settled here.

The municipality of Zwischenbergen was incorporated (at least partially) into the municipality of Wiesmoor on July 1, 1972.

Zwischenbergen is a village that belongs to the town of Wiesmoor with the postcode 26639 and to the municipality of Großefehn with the postcode 26629 - both in the district of Aurich in East Friesland. The village consists mostly of pasture land. The most important road is the Zwischenberger Weg, which also connects the neighboring villages of Vossbarg and Fiebing.
The building is right on the main street.
