From North Dakota Place Names by Douglas Wick: This Milwaukee Road Railroad station was founded in 1902 in the southwest quarter of section 31-130-74 and northwest quarter of section 6-129-74, midway between Strasburg and Zeeland. It was named by railroad officials for The Hague, Netherlands to honor Dutch settlers in the area, although most of these people later moved farther west, with this community now being populated largely by Germans from Russia. The post office was established November 24, 1902 with Franz Wolf as Postmaster. The elevation is 1899, the Zip Code is 58542, and the village, which incorporated in 1908, reached a peak population of 442 in 1940.
