Take a look

The famous wooden Elfstedenbruggetje ("Eleven Cities bridge") is in Bartlehiem!

Bartlehiem has no city rights, it is not even a village, but this hamlet is a world-famous place on the Elfstedenroute ("Eleven Cities Route").

It is located at a crossroads of water in the Dokkumer Ee where the skaters pass not once but twice during the tour: the wooden bridge of Bartlehiem is the ideal place to watch. 

During the last Elfstedentocht, the Elfstedenbrug was completely crammed with celebrating spectators, marching bands and TV crews: it seemed like the center of the world.

Bartlehiem: also the place of pilgrimage for skaters!
