Commanding a prestigious position, right in the centre of Leeuwarden, this house was built by one of the most influential and impressive men of his time. It’s not all glitz and glamour, take a look at the servants’ quarters, and see for yourself. Find out why the house stood empty for long periods of time. Ring the doorbell, get to know the Van Eysinga family, feel the vibes and soak up the atmosphere. You can even sit down at one of the games tables.

This museum is in the same building as the Fries Museum. Friesland apparently played an important role in the Dutch Resistance during the Second World War. Here a very good collection of photos, artifacts etc. from more than 75 years ago is now being displayed. Recommended.

The Fries Museum is dedicated to Friesland and the Frisian people. Its activities revolve around the eleven cities that make up the province and the surrounding countryside. These include the Frisians' love-hate relationship with water, the search for what defines the typical Frisian character, and Friesland's place in the wider world. The freedom fighter Grutte Pier's sword; old costumes and clothing; treasures from the Frisian mounds; the legacy of Mata Hari, the exotic dancer who was executed as a spy at the end of the First World War; Gerrit Benner's paintings; contemporary visual art; and the film de Overval: together these objects tell the story of Friesland.
Very friendly museum which has done a lot to make the experience interesting especially in the corona time. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed the exhibitions which are located on two floors. Learnt alot about the area during the war and the history of the friesian people. Worth a visit!
