Attack on the port of Oostmahorn
Attack on the port of Oostmahorn
The liberation of the north-eastern part of Friesland was not achieved without a struggle. The Dutch Domestic Armed Forces (NBS) and Canadian troops fought fierce battles, partly side by side. It was mainly occupiers fleeing in panic who caused fights and shootings that claimed victims on both sides. A fierce battle was also fought over the port of Oostmahorn.
After the liberation of Dokkum, Kollum and Dokkumer Nieuwe Zijlen, the attention of the Canadian troops turned to the port of Oostmahorn. It was the gateway to the island of Schiermonnikoog, which was part of the German defence line, the Atlantic Wall. This bulwark ran along the coasts of France to Norway. During the war, and extensive occupying force was stationed on the Wadden Island.
The village of Oostmahorn was "relieved" by the Dutch Domestic Armed Forces (NBS) on Saturday, 14 April, after the German Grenzschutz (border control) left in silence for Schiermonnikoog. Meanwhile, a group of more than a hundred fleeing SS and SD men and a dozen women crossed the Lauwerszee from Groningen near Zoutkamp with three boats to the island. A number of them were high-ranking SD members of the infamous Scholtenhuis in Groningen. When the NBS saw them sailing past from the port of Oostmahorn, shots were fired back and forth.
The German occupying forces on Schiermonnikoog then wanted to take revenge. The village and the port of Oostmahorn were attacked from the island for two hours on Monday, 16 April. A convoy of three Dutch boats left for the port with the aim of landing there. Meanwhile, the help of the B-Squadron of the Royal Canadian Dragoons (1st Armoured Carrier Regiment) in Dokkum had been called in. The attack was narrowly repelled, but two Canadian soldiers from a reconnaissance group were killed. A defence line of foxholes and armoured vehicles was erected around the village.
Further reinforcements were called in that day from Leeuwarden, where C Company of the North Nova Scotia Highlanders were sent to the coastal strip to patrol for German landing attempts.
After a brief but heavy shelling from the Canadians as a warning, a mediator was sent to the island the next day. The highest-ranking SD officer refused to surrender. They were waiting for an escape with a Schnell boat that was to take them to the German Wadden island of Borkum on 3 May. That turned out to be in vain, but in the meantime they kept the island occupied, even after the general capitulation of the whole of the Netherlands on 5 May.It was not until 11 June that two boats, the MS Waddenzee and the MS Brakzand, transported the last occupiers of Schiermonnikoog to the port of Oostmahorn. A column of army trucks packed with prisoners of war left the port under the guard of the Allies. From there they went to the POW camp in Beerta (Groningen).

Dit punt is ûnderdiel fan it trajekt 'It Paad Werom Terherne'. Besjoch de hiele rûte. Let op: Dizze rûte begjint by it grutte parkearplak yn it doarp, Koailan 2
(harkje hjir nei it audioferhaal)
Dat horeka yn Terherne altyd al in grutte rol spile hat, bewiist it ferhaal dat ik dy no fertelle sil. We weagje wer in sprong, no nei 1882. Café Zevenwouden is der allang en is no fan heit Rypkema. It Is ek de tiid dat it Far dimpt wurdt en Rypkema stiet foar de kar wa fan beide soannen de kroech oernimme sil. Der is spul en se komme der ûnderling net út. It kafee moat feilt wurde en de beide broers biede flink tsjin elkoar op. De iene broer lûkt oan it koartste ein en keapet in pân oan de oare kant fan it doarp by de brêge. Hy brekt it ôf en lit in nije herberch bouwe. Grutter en op in drokker plak as dat fan syn broer mei it Café Zevenwouden. In de 21ste ieuw hjit it de Gouden Leeuw. De konkurrinsjestriid liedt derta dat de broer mei Café Zevenwouden fallyt gean sil en it wer ferkocht wurde moat. Dochs sil de kroech syn namme hâlde, yn elts gefal oant yn de 21ste ieuw.
Oké, we stappe wer werom nei de hjoeddeistige tiid.
En we gean wer fierder. Al fynt it ferhaal oer de horeka en de kroegen fan Terherne noch net syn ein. Want watst miskien net witst is dat der noch in kroech wie, op in noch hiele oare ‘hoeke fan Terherne’. En de namme fan dy kroech wie wol hiel opmerkelik, hielendal as je sjogge nei de hjoeddeistige tiid.
We rinne basisskoalle Bloei oan de linkerkant foarby en stekke oer nei de herfoarme tsjerke. Gean mar troch it stek. En gean fuortendaliks rjochts ôf en oer it gers nei myn grêf. Ja, do sjochtst it goed. De earste stien rjochts, dat is myn lêste rêstplak. (No ja rêstplak, ik ha it der mar wer drok mei…)
Wolst wat foar my dwaan? Lêz dan eefkes mei folle omtinken myn lêste wink dy’t dêr skreaun stiet. Nim it eefkes goed yn dy op. “Tot in den eeuwigheid…”
[En no freegje ik dy: wat soe dyn lêste winsk wêze foar de wrâld dytst efterlitst? En soe it dan ek wier sa barre tinkst? Tsja…. Ik haw leard dat allinnich de tiid dat antwurd hat.Ik bin bliid dat ik dêr hjoed noch wat yn betsjutte kin. Dan sjogge je flak foar it tsjerkje it hûs mei de giele brievenbus. Gean foar dit hûs rjochts ôf, by de hage fan de tsjerke del, it smelle strjitsje yn. Nei it gielbrune hok stopje we eefkes. Do sjochst hjir in pear lytse âlde húskes stean. En âld binne se, want hjir fynst it earste stiennen hûs fan Terherne. Ek wol in stins neamd.
Hjirfoar gean we werom nei it jier 1500.
It giet om dizze wente, Wat letter in groepke fan lytsere húskes wurde sil, wurdt yn earste bouwd as 1 grut hûs. Yn dit hûs sitte Roazewinkels, dat binne stienen dy’t op de boulokaasje sels bakt wurde. As we dêrnei in spronkje meitsje nei it jier 1750, sjogge we dat der in grutte ferbouwing geande is. Fan it grutte hûs wurde 4 lytske húskes en in bûthús makke. Yn in inkelt húske binne dizze roazewinkels noch hieltyd oanwêzich, yn in skoarstien, it orizjinele en bewarre riikkanaal fan de stins. De inisjatyfnimmers fan de bou fan de stins binne de Oenema’s, in famylje fan boereadel dy’t in soad ûnreplik guod hawwe yn dit hiele gebied.. Yn de lege Wâlden, fan Terherne oant oan De Jouwer hawwe sy it foar’t sizzen.We rinne werom nei de dyk en slane op’e nij rjochts ôf by de giele brievenbus en rinne nei de Pastorij, de snackbar op’e hoeke.
