Jopie Huisman
The route starts at the edge of Workum. You walk at your leisure towards the Diepe Dolte, a waterway that connects to the Warkumer Trekfaert that runs to Bolsward. You will see beautiful centuries-old buildings here, varying from farmhouses with a dome to buildings with stepped and bell gables. You will also discover a rich cultural history in the main street of Workum. You will pass the Sint Werenfriduskerk from 1877, among other things. Further on you can visit the Jopie Huisman Museum, highly recommended.
Town Hall
The core of the Town Hall dates back to the Middle Ages, as does the Sint-Gertrudiskerk. The Waag originally dates from 1650. On the edge of the village is the Nylânnermolen from 1784. Walk along the dike along the Zool for a beautiful view, in the distance you can see the church tower of Hindeloopen. The rest of the route you walk on a car-free road through the polders.
