Town in Friesland, Netherlands
Stavoren , ['staːvərə(n )] previously Staveren (West Frisian : Starum ) is a small town on the coast of the IJsselmeer , about 5 km south of Hindeloopen .
Overview
The Lady of Stavoren , 1969 statue.
The historical Stavoren was granted city rights between 1060-1067, making it the oldest city in Friesland . It began to decline in the late Middle Ages after a sandbank formed outside the harbour, blocking ships from entering and exiting. The appearance of the sandbank is the topic of the Dutch Renaissance folk-tale of the Lady of Stavoren . In 1657, the entire town was submerged in a great flood.
Modern Stavoren is a village with a population of less than 1000 within the municipality of Súdwest-Fryslân . It is one of the stops on the Elfstedentocht , (literally, 'eleven cities ride'), an ice skating contest/event which occurs when the winter temperatures provide safe conditions.
A ferry for pedestrians and cyclists operates between Stavoren and Enkhuizen , with increased trips during summer months.
