Although these mounds are no longer visible today, their historical significance remains evident in the city&#8217;s heritage. Bolsward boasts stunning architecture and rich cultural heritage. The city is centered around the old inner harbor and, of course, easily accessible by boat!<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->        <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_row themify_builder_row tb_bv8r854 tf_w\">\n                        <div class=\"row_inner col_align_top tb_col_count_1 tf_box tf_rel\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col-full tb_awnx856 first\">\n                            <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_subrow themify_builder_sub_row tf_w col_align_top tb_col_count_2 tb_zsl6485\">\n                <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column sub_column col4-2 tb_doh3486 first\">\n                    <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_6hz5487   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h2>Marinas in Bolsward<\/h2>\n<p>There are several places in Bolsward where you can moor your boat. One of the most popular spots is the transient harbor of Bolsward, located in the heart of the city. Here, you&#8217;ll find mooring spots near the Gijsbert Japicx Bridge on the northwest side of the center, and also at Kruiswater on the south side of Bolsward. Facilities such as toilets, showers, and water are available. The mooring fee is around \u20ac1.50 per meter per night, plus tourist tax.<\/p>\n<h2>A City Walk through Bolsward<\/h2>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve docked, exploring the city on foot is easy. Take a stroll along the canals and through the parks. Don&#8217;t miss the Martinikerk, one of Bolsward&#8217;s most significant historical landmarks. This beautiful church is built in the Gothic style and is well-preserved. For a different kind of church experience, visit the Broerekerk. Originally a monastery church, it suffered a fire in 1980 but has been revitalized with a glass roof that brings the sky closer than ever before. We highly recommend a visit.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the Bolsward town hall is a must-see. This grand building in the center of Bolsward was designed by Jacob Gysbert, the father of Gysbert Japicx, and is adorned with intricate details. Additionally, Bolsward boasts a unique fountain shaped like a bat, adding to its charm.<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module image -->\n<div  class=\"module module-image tb_o08e68 image-top rounded  tf_mw\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"image-wrap tf_rel tf_mw\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite.jpg\" class=\"wp-post-image wp-image-8246\" title=\"Motorboot in Friesland\" alt=\"Motorboot in Friesland\" srcset=\"https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-666x500.jpg 666w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-933x700.jpg 933w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-450x337.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>    \n        <\/div>\n    <!-- \/image-wrap -->\n    \n        <\/div>\n<!-- \/module image --><!-- module buttons -->\n<div  class=\"module module-buttons tb_v33n951 buttons-horizontal solid  large rounded\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"module-buttons-item tf_in_flx\">\n                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.varenmetsil.nl\/en\/motorboten\" class=\"ui builder_button tf_in_flx tb_default_color\" >\n                                                Book now                                        <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<!-- \/module buttons -->\n        <\/div>\n                    <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column sub_column col4-2 tb_gf4c487 last\">\n                    <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_75uh488   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h2>Restaurants and Caf\u00e9s in Bolsward<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a tasty bite or drink after your city walk, visit Blend in Bolsward.

Take a stroll along the canals and through the parks. Don't miss the Martinikerk, one of Bolsward's most significant historical landmarks. This beautiful church is built in the Gothic style and is well-preserved. For a different kind of church experience, visit the Broerekerk. Originally a monastery church, it suffered a fire in 1980 but has been revitalized with a glass roof that brings the sky closer than ever before. We highly recommend a visit.<\/p> <p>Also, the Bolsward town hall is a must-see. This grand building in the center of Bolsward was designed by Jacob Gysbert, the father of Gysbert Japicx, and is adorned with intricate details. Additionally, Bolsward boasts a unique fountain shaped like a bat, adding to its charm.<\/p>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite.jpg\" title=\"Motorboot in Friesland\" alt=\"Motorboot in Friesland\" srcset=\"https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-666x500.jpg 666w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-933x700.jpg 933w, https:\/\/varenmetsil.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/moanne-marrekrite-1024x768-450x337.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.varenmetsil.nl\/en\/motorboten\" > Book now <\/a>\n<h2>Restaurants and Caf\u00e9s in Bolsward<\/h2> <p>If you're looking for a tasty bite or drink after your city walk, visit Blend in Bolsward.
