'''Terborg''' is a small city in the [[Netherlands|Dutch]] province of [[Gelderland]], in the Achterhoek region in the east of the Netherlands. It is located in the municipality of [[Oude IJsselstreek]]. The city lies about 7&nbsp;km southeast of [[Doetinchem]]. The population is about 4600 inhabitants.

Terborg is situated on the river the [[Oude IJssel]]. In the centre of the little city lies Castle Wisch, founded in the 13th century (hence the name "Terborg" which means "by the castle"). In the southeast of the city, near [[Silvolde]] lies a small nature reserve called the Paasberg ("Easter Mountain"). Terborg has a [[Terborg railway station|train station]] on the train route [[Arnhem]] - [[Winterswijk]], and trains call here twice every hour.

Terborg received city rights in 1419. The patron saint of the city is [[Saint George]]. Its [[coat of arms]] still is Saint George on a horse, killing a [[dragon]].

Until 1813, Terborg was part of the [[fiefdom]] Wisch, together with the villages Silvolde en [[Varsseveld]]. Terborg was a separate municipality until 1818 when it was merged with Varsseveld into municipality [[Wisch (Gelderland)|Wisch]] (equal to the ancient fiefdom). In 2005 it formed municipality Oude IJsselstreek with municipality [[Gendringen]].<ref>{{Repertorium Nederlandse Gemeenten}}</ref>

In 1945, the town's ''Chasdei Enosh'' synagogue was blown up and destroyed by Nazis. An exact replica of the historic building opened on 7 June 2018 in [[Mevo Horon]] Israel, inaugurated by  Israeli descendants of Dutch Jews.<ref>"Replica of Dutch synagogue destroyed in WWII opens near Jerusalem" JTA June 13, 2018 https://www.jta.org/2018/06/13/news-opinion/replica-dutch-synagogue-destroyed-wwii-opens-near-jerusalem</ref>  The old synagogue, on the Silvoldeseweg, was built in 1901.<ref>{{cite book |last1=van Velzen |first1=Jaap |last2=Uijenkruijer |first2=Debby |title=Een ansicht uit de Mediene: joods leven in de Provincie |publisher=Joods Historisch Museum |isbn=9064712484 |page=54 |ref=VanVelzen}}</ref>
