The story

Story · Iwema Steenhuis

  • en
  • nl

You're standing at the Iwema stone house on 't Pad in the village of Niebert. At first glance it's just a white-plastered farmhouse. But hidden in the front part is something special: a medieval tower house from around 1400. It's the only building in the whole province of Groningen that still has the character of a stone house.
