'''Suderwick''' is a [village](/source/village) in the [city](/source/city) of [Bocholt](/source/Bocholt%2C_Germany), [Kreis Borken](/source/Borken_(district)) in the [German](/source/Germany) [State](/source/States_of_Germany) of [North Rhine-Westphalia](/source/North_Rhine-Westphalia). Suderwick is situated at the [Germany-Netherlands border](/source/Germany-Netherlands_border) and forms one urban area with [Dinxperlo](/source/Dinxperlo), a town in [Aalten](/source/Aalten) municipality of [Gelderland](/source/Gelderland) province of the [Netherlands](/source/Netherlands).

One street in Dinxperlo, ''Heelweg'', is partly German. The road itself lies in the Netherlands, but one side of the housing zone is in Suderwick, so in Germany (where it is called ''Hellweg'').<ref>{{cite web|title=Dinxperlo (NL) / Suderwick (D)|url=http://www.grenzen.150m.com/dinxperloGB.htm|website=www.grenzen.150m.com|access-date=7 September 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141010224931/http://www.grenzen.150m.com/dinxperloGB.htm|archive-date=10 October 2014}}</ref> Suderwick might be translated as "southern area". Also, the villages  house a shared Dutch-German [police station](/source/police_station).

Besides [Dutch](/source/Dutch_language) and [German](/source/German_language), at both sides of the border a common dialect is spoken, which is a variety of [Low Saxon](/source/West_Low_German).

Just after the [Second World War](/source/Second_World_War), Suderwick was [annexed](/source/Dutch_annexation_of_German_territory_after_the_Second_World_War) by the Netherlands, one of many pieces of German territory annexed as part of its claims for war reparations. Suderwick reverted to West Germany on 1 August 1963 after negotiations between West Germany and Netherlands led to the Treaty of Settlement between the two countries signed on 8 April 1960.
