**Beekbergen** (Dutch pronunciation: [\[ˈbeːɡbɛrɣə(n)\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Dutch); [Low German](/source/Low_German_language): *Bekbargen* or *Beekbargen*) is a village and former municipality in the [Dutch](/source/Netherlands) province of [Gelderland](/source/Gelderland). It is located in the municipality of [Apeldoorn](/source/Apeldoorn) on the edge of the [Veluwe](/source/Veluwe). The rural area on the southwestern side of the village is dominated by forests and the rural area on the northeastern side by agricultural land. A hamlet called [Engeland](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Engeland,_Gelderland&action=edit&redlink=1) is situated inside the rural area that is part of Beekbergen, as well as several holiday villages, campsites and hotels. The village also houses a number of retirement homes and a homeless shelter, called "Het Hoogeland". Beekbergen had 4,546 residents on 1 January 2016, of which about three out of five people were living inside the urban area.

Beekbergen was a separate municipality until 1818, when it became a part of Apeldoorn.[3]

There is a Beekbergen railway station, situated about a kilometer outside of Beekbergen, in the village of [Lieren](/source/Lieren). This station is home to a steam railway that runs from [Dieren](/source/Dieren) to [Apeldoorn](/source/Apeldoorn) over a former passenger railway line,[4] operated by the [Veluwsche Stoomtrein Maatschappij](/source/Veluwsche_Stoomtrein_Maatschappij). The VSM engine sheds are located at 'Beekbergen'.

## Watermills

Three [overshot watermills](/source/Overshot) were located along the Oude Beek, a stream, that were used to produce paper. Two of them were called Tullekensmolen – one of them was situated south of the stream and the other one north of it. Both mills burned down in 1872 when they were owned by a family called Dijkgraaf, but only the one on the south bank was rebuilt.[5]
