From Wikipedia

Zuidhorn (Dutch pronunciation: [zœytˈɦɔr(ə)n] ; Gronings: Zuudhörn [zytˈɦœːn]) is a town and former municipality in the northeastern Netherlands. The town largely depends on the city of Groningen. A railway line, operated by Arriva, connects the town with Leeuwarden in Friesland and Groningen. Due to a municipal reorganisation in 1990, Zuidhorn municipality was extended when it merged with, though not physically connected to Oldehove, Grijpskerk and Aduard.
