Neustadtgödens is a district of the municipality of Sande in the district of Friesland in Lower Saxony. Before the municipal reform of 1972, it belonged to the district of Wittmund and was part of East Frisia.
After the Antonius flood of 1511, when the Jade Bay reached its largest extent, extensive dike construction measures began in the Lordship of Gödens. As part of these measures, a drainage channel was built in 1544, which formed the nucleus of the town. The owners of the lordship, the von Frydag family, attracted many religious refugees to the planned town through religious tolerance, which was named Neustadt Gödens after the seat of power Gödens. Among the first settlers were primarily Mennonite religious refugees. Many of them were specifically recruited Dutch skilled workers.
