History

Cornjum was served by a station on the North Friesland Railway which opened in 1901 and closed to passengers in July 1936, before reopening to passengers in May 1940 and closing to passengers again in December 1940. The line finally closed in 1997.

Before 2018, the village was part of the Leeuwarderadeel municipality.

Notable Landmarks

The old mansion Martenastate in Cornjum was demolished around 1900 and replaced by a small fantasy castle.
