Norwich was founded in 1901 and named after Norwich, England in an effort to please Great Northern Railway stockholders from England. It was one of several sites along the Great Northern's transcontinental route between Devils Lake and Minot that were named after places in England (the others were Berwick, Leeds, Penn, Rugby, Surrey, Tunbridge, and York).

The community is part of the Minot Micropolitan Statistical Area.
