Reutum was first attested in the late-10th century as Riatnon, and means "settlement near reed".[3] The village developed along the Reutumse Es.[4] Reutum and neighbour Haarle were home to 670 people in 1840.[5]
The church is dedicated to St. Simon and Judas, and was constructed in 1811.[4] The windmill is called "De Vier Winden" (The four winds), and dates from 1862.[4] Another point of interest is the double sluice in the Almelo-Nordhorn canal.
