Oranjedorp is a village in the Netherlands and it is part of the Emmen municipality in Drenthe.

Oranjedorp started to develop when the Oranjekanaal [nl] was completed in 1858, and peat exploitation started in the area.^[3] In 1867, it was first mentioned as Oranjedorp.^[4] Even though the postal authorities have placed it under Nieuw-Dordrecht.^[5] it is considered a village.^[3]^[6] In 1932, it was home to 932 people.^[7] No church was built in Oranjedorp.^[3]

In 1988, a gas desulfurization plant of the Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij [nl] opened in Oranjedorp,^[8] and industry started to move to the village.^[3]
