Erm is a village in the Netherlands and is part of the Coevorden municipality in Drenthe.

It was first mentioned between 1267 and 1290 as Erme. The etymology is unknown.[3] It used to be referred to as Voorste Erm to distinguish from Achterste Erm. In 1840, it was home to 400 people. In 1885, a school was built in the village, but closed in 2019.[4]
