Diever consisted of the settlements Diever, Wapse, Wateren, Wittelte,
Zorgvlied. The village of Diever was the seat of a "dingspel" (village
judiciary). Until 1811 Eemster, Hoogersmilde, Leggeloo and Vledder were
also part of Diever municipality. Vledder became a separate municipality
in 1816.
Since 1946 there is an open-air theatre, where annually plays by Shakespeare
