The Friese Waterlinie started being built around 1580. The defence line goes from the Zuidersea, along the River Linde, to the De Blesse Bridge. Then, the defence line goes northward to Kuinre by way of Heerenveen, Terband, Gorredijk, Donkerbroek, Bakkeveen and Frieschepalen. The area along the forts had dams flooded during the Eighty Years' War against the Spanish and in 1672 Rampjaar (Disaster Year) against Bernard von Galen and the French troops who were the bishop of Munster. In the east, the defence line is connected to the , which comtinues to Delfzijl.

  • De Friese Waterlinie is kort na 1580 aangelegd en begon aan de Zuiderzee, volgde de Linde tot De Blessebrug, vandaar noordwaarts naar de Kuinre en de Schoterbrug, dan over Heerenveen en Terband naar Gorredijk en zo via Donkerbroek en Bakkeveen naar Frieschepalen. De waterlinie wordt sinds eind 20e eeuw hersteld door voormalige schansen weer zichtbaar te maken. Langs de linie zijn wandel- en fietsroutes uitgezet. (nl)

  • The Friese Waterlinie started being built around 1580. The defence line goes from the Zuidersea, along the River Linde, to the De Blesse Bridge. Then, the defence line goes northward to Kuinre by way of Heerenveen, Terband, Gorredijk, Donkerbroek, Bakkeveen and Frieschepalen. The area along the forts had dams flooded during the Eighty Years' War against the Spanish and in 1672 Rampjaar (Disaster Year) against Bernard von Galen and the French troops who were the bishop of Munster. In the east, the defence line is connected to the , which comtinues to Delfzijl. Part of the defence line is also called the Tjonger-Lindelinie. The ten schansen were in nearby Oudehorne, just north of the River Tjonger, near Oudeschoot, along the road to Wolvega and nearby . The defence line is currently under restoration. The defence line contains thezse forts: * Sterrenschans (nearby Bakkeveen) * Zwartendijksterschans * Breebergschans * Schans Frieschepalen * Makkingaasterschans * Bekhofschans * Kuinderschans * Sliekenborgschans * Blessebergeschans * Tolbrugschans (en)
  • De Friese Waterlinie is kort na 1580 aangelegd en begon aan de Zuiderzee, volgde de Linde tot De Blessebrug, vandaar noordwaarts naar de Kuinre en de Schoterbrug, dan over Heerenveen en Terband naar Gorredijk en zo via Donkerbroek en Bakkeveen naar Frieschepalen. In het oosten sloot de linie in het Westerkwartier aan op de Groninger Waterlinie die doorliep tot Delfzijl. Het gebied langs de schansen, stuwen en dammen werd tijdens de Tachtigjarige Oorlog tegen de Spanjaarden en in het Rampjaar 1672/73 tegen Bernhard von Galen en Franse hulptroepen onder water gezet. De schansen, die op strategische plaatsen lagen, waren de enige doorgangen richting Leeuwarden. Op deze manier werd de Friese hoofdstad beschermd. De waterlinie wordt sinds eind 20e eeuw hersteld door voormalige schansen weer zichtbaar te maken. Langs de linie zijn wandel- en fietsroutes uitgezet. (nl)
