A church has stood in the middle of the cemetery. It was demolished in the middle of the 18th century. A bell chair was founded in 1723. This bell chair was destroyed in the Second World War, on December 22, 1943. Then in the afternoon an American bomber B24H crashed into the cemetery with a thunderous crash, completely destroying the bell seat. The bell-seat with a hipped roof was reinstalled in 1953.

This Cliff gets its name from the color of the boulder clay from which it is built. The red color is the result of iron richness and low descaling. Red boulder clay can only be found in Gaasterland. Since 1951, a monument of erratic stones has stood at the Red Cliff. On the top stone is the text 'leaver dea as slaef' (rather dead than slave) as a reminder of the Battle of Warns. This was the battle between Count William IV of Holland and the Frisians on September 26, 1345. The Dutch knights were attacked by the local population near the village of Warns. They fled and unfortunately chose the ferkearde meadow, the road to the Red Cliff. The swampy landscape caused them, with their heavy armor, to be crushed.

The JL Hoogland pumping station is an electric pumping station in Stavoren in the Dutch province of Friesland. The building from 1966 with a curved roof was built according to a design by architect Piet de Vries. There are four screw pumps in the hall. The pumping station discharges the water from the Frisian storage basin into the IJsselmeer. At 6,000 m3 per minute, the discharge capacity of the JL Hoogland pumping station is one and a half times that of the Woudagemaal.
