Winneweer ({{IPA|nl|ˈʋɪnəʋeːr|pron}}) is a small village in the municipalities of Eemsdelta and Groningen in the Dutch province of Groningen.

The village was first mentioned in 1668 as "Winne-weer, een Logijs-plaets", and refers to an inn which was located near Garrelsweer, and is nowadays a pub. The etymology is unclear.{{cite web|url=https://etymologiebank.nl/trefwoord/winneweer |title=Winneweer - (geografische naam) |website=Etymologiebank |access-date=8 April 2022 |language=nl}}

Before 1850, there was hardly any habitation in Winneweer. After 1850, industry started to settle in Winneweer. A saw mill turned into a wood factory, a dairy factory and a brickworks followed.
