Paterswolde & Eelde

We lived in Paterswolde from 1995 till 2015. It was once a farmers village
surrounded by estates owned by the rich & famous from the city of Groningen,
seven miles to the north. The estates are still there, with their historic houses,
woodlands, parks and pastures, most of them now open to the public.
The old village on the lake -together with its twin town Eelde- has grown into
a prosperous community with a small boat harbour, an art museum, an airport,
a large regional flower auction-mart, and a yearly flower parade.

Beste Henk,
ik kwam toevallig op je site met o.m. een gallery van Paterswolde , mijn hometown van leeftijd 7-20 jaar . Prachtige fotos, although je mag die van het Paasvuur, wel noemen "Easter bonfire"als je het toch op 'zien Engels' doet. Gaat door met de kiekjes!
groet'n,
Harmien, Surrey, BC

I also have been involved with friends in Eelde for the last 35 years and have just loved looking at your gallery.
Never felt so much at home in any other place, ever!

My friend Sonia (who first pointed out Joop's f'log to me) said this morning that if she were dropped into the middle of your town, she'd feel at home, since she has seen so much of it and knows it well.

I feel the same. Thanks again for sharing.
