Steenwijk, a town (coordinates: 52.78689, 6.11807 [52° 47′ 12″ N, 6° 7′ 5″ E]; 1947 pop. 8,677, with 171 Mennonites) in the Dutch province of Overijssel, the seat of a Mennonite congregation. This congregation had formerly its seat at Zuidveen, a hamlet about two miles south of Steenwijk. For the early history of this church see Zuidveen. In 1848, since most of the members were then living at Steenwijk, a new meetinghouse and parsonage were built at Steenwijk, dedicated on 4 May 1848, by Koenraad Hovens Greve, then the pastor of the congregation. He served until 1862, and was followed by A. J. Bijl 1862-1904, E. Engelkes 1905-13, G. Fopma 1913-42, W. I. Fleischer 1942-46, Miss J. H. van der Slooten 1946-54, and H. J. de Wilde 1954- .
The meetinghouse of 1848 is still in use; in 1896 it was provided with an organ. Outstanding families of the Steenwijk congregation were the Rijkmans and Veen families. There is a ladies' circle. During the 16th century there was some Anabaptist activity at Steenwijk. Elder Leenaert Bouwens baptized five persons here in 1552.
