Goor () is a city in the Dutch province of Overijssel. It is located about west of Enschede. Goor received city rights in 1263.
Goor was a separate municipality until 2001, when it became part of Hof van Twente. Goor had a statue of Joan Derk van der Capellen tot den Pol, but it was destroyed in 1787 by royalist Orangists in the defeat of the republican movement.
