About Drachten

Traversed by a network of canals, Drachten is one of the largest towns in the Dutch province of Friesland. It was established in the Middle Ages on the site of peat bogs, which were exploited for around 200 years as a source of fuel. Drachten flourished in the 18th and 19th centuries as a shipbuilding hub for the construction of timber flatboats and iron hull vessels.

The church also features beautiful stained-glass windows made by Jurjen and Ype Staak in the 18th century.
