Prinses Margriet Canal

Highlight • River

The Prinses Margriet Canal flows from the IJsselmeer to the Frisian Stroobos, where it continues through Groningen under the name Van Starkenborgh Canal. Parts of the canal have retained their historic names, such as the Frisian Knillisdjip and Krûme Ie. The canal is busy, so get off your bike and admire the many boats and ships.

Coopersburg Residential Complex

Highlight • Monument

In 1866, F.H. Kuipers, a native of Akkrum, emigrated to the United States, where he became a wealthy businessman. During his annual visits to his father, he noticed the poverty of the village's elderly population. Therefore, he established a foundation with the goal of providing shelter and food to the village's poor. Coopersburg was built. (Kuiper had changed his name to Cooper in the United States.) It features a magnificent garden, a carp pond, a mausoleum, and a Regent's Room. This room can be visited upon request.
