The Dokkumer Ie used to be an important shipping connection for the transport of raw materials in North Friesland. The canal is still used today, but mainly by pleasure boats. And don't blame them: this picturesque area begs to be discovered from the water. The town of Dokkum, located on the Dokkumer Ie, is also worth a visit with its unmissable flair.

Sint-Bonifatiuskloosterplein Dokkum

Highlight • Historical Site

The former monastery church of the Sint Bonifatiusklooster can be seen as an outline in the paving.

Saint Boniface Monastery in Dokkum, founded around 760 as a chapter (of Augustinian canons, converted from Mariëngaarde into a provostship of Premonstratensian men, around 1170 – 1580. In 1290 the monastery would have had 400 inhabitants, from Wikipedia.

Premonstratensians or Norbertines
Also called Witheren. The monks usually called themselves canons and canonesses; the name monks and nuns was reserved for the converses or lay brothers and sisters. The men's monasteries or provostships were not led by an abbot, but by a provost; the women's monasteries or priories by a prior. In 1290 the inhabitants of Premonstratensian monasteries in Friesland, Groningen and East Friesland were counted: the number of monks mentioned is on the high side; possibly farming families dependent on the monastery were included.
