Overview

[edit | edit source]

It was first mentioned in 1272 as Lattorpe, and means "village of Læta (partially unfree farmer)".[3] In 1840, it was home to 516 people.[4] The postal authorities have placed Lattrop and Breklenkamp into a single entity called "Lattrop-Breklenkamp".[5] however both still have their own place name signs.[4]

The Oortmanmolen is a windmill from 1910 which has been restored in 1983.[6]

The Cosmos Sterrenwacht is an observatory which started in the garden of Hennie Gosemeijer as a hobby. In 1964, Gosemeijer became an official satellite observer for NASA. His observatory received many visitors, and in 1974, it became a public observatory. The Astro Theater, a planetarium was later added to the observatory.[4]
