It was first mentioned in 1474 as Borchem, and means "settlement on/near a hill".[3] It used to be a little agricultural settlement, and used to be centred around the Barchemse Enk.[4]: 1 In 1840, it was home to 346 people.[5] Later, the centre moved to the road from Lochem to Ruurlo where a toll house was constructed in 1857. In 1860, the church was built at the intersection with the road from Borculo to Zwiep [nl]. During World War II, Barchem was the scene of heavy fighting.[4]: 1 There are 25 commonwealth graves on the general cemetery.[6]
