Borssum or Borßum is a village in Lower Saxony, Germany. Together with the village of Hilmarsum it forms a district (German: Stadtteil) of Emden. The East Frisian village on the Eems is located southeast of the city.
The history of Borssum dates back to the seventh century. It originated from two centres, German: Groß-Borssum and German: Klein-Borssum, both of which had a borg. Today, the Westerburg School and the Osterburg School are located on the location of both buildings.[1]
The historic village with a church from the thirteenth century, has grown into one of the larger districts of Emden, especially after the Second World War.
