Poptaslot
A 16th-century Frisian manor castle in the village of Marssum. It retains its 17th- and 18th-century interiors and can be visited on a guided tour.
Poptaslot lies in the village of Marssum, about 5 km west of Leeuwarden. It is a typical Frisian “stins,” a noble country house surrounded by a moat. Its interior preserves 17th- and 18th-century furniture, porcelain and leather wallpaper. Visits are mainly guided. The nearby almshouse for the elderly and the courtyard are also worth seeing. You can cycle there, but opening hours are limited, so check in advance.
