About Leeuwarden
Leeuwarden is the capital of Friesland in the north of the Netherlands, a canal town with a leaning tower, a ceramics museum and the Wadden Sea near.
Leeuwarden, or Ljouwert in Frisian, is the capital of Friesland, the province in the north of the Netherlands with its own language and traditions. Canals ring the old centre, where brick merchants' houses and narrow streets surround the Oldehove, a church tower begun in 1529 that was never finished and leans noticeably.
