Pekel A (also Pekel Aa;[1]Dutch pronunciation:[ˈpeːkəlaː]) is a river in the Province of Groningen in the Netherlands. The villages of Oude Pekela and Nieuwe Pekela have been named after the river.[2][3] The name translates to Brine (Pekel) River (A),[2] and used to flow from the Dollart into a large raised bog. The Dollart was poldered from the 15th century until 1924, and the river now has its source at the confluence with the Westerwoldsche Aa [nl] at De Bult [nl]. The river was canalised and extended. The part from Oude Pekela to Stadskanaal was renamed Pekelderdiep [nl]. From 1599 until 1810, the area through which the river flowed, was a peat colony. In the 20th century, the Pekel A was a heavily polluted river, but it has been cleaned up since the 1970s.
