History

edit

The village was first mentioned between 1325 and 1336 as Garipe and means "village of the river bank".[5] Garyp developed into a stretched-out village on a sandy ridge. The current Dutch Reformed church dates from 1838; however, the first church was built around 1100.[6] Around 1930, the peat in the region was excavated.[7]

Garyp was home to 620 people in 1840.[7]
