Dingen, Groningen
De Dingen is a former hamlet in the Dutch province of Groningen. It was located about 1 km south of Baflo.
According to the 19th-century historian A.J. van der Aa, the hamlet consisted of four farms, stretching from east to west. There used to be a fortified house here, called "Dingen" or "De Dingen".
The farms still exist, and are still called Dingen; but they are no longer considered to be a separate settlement on the newest topographical map of the area.
