Nieuwstadt (, ) is a town in the Dutch province of Limburg. It is part of the municipality of Echt-Susteren, and lies about 5 km north of Sittard.
== History == Nieuwstadt was first mentioned in 1242 as "Novo Opido" which means "new (fortified) city", and received city rights in 1277. Nieuwstadt was a border city of the Duchy of Guelders and received city walls. In 1383, it was severely damaged and a more compact settlement was developed. In 1573, the walls were demolished and Nieuwstadt started to stagnate.
