The statue of these two children stands close to the church.

The city center is neat and compact and has almost everything you can ask for.
There s a lot of building going lately which explains the fences at the left.
What to buy: Local souvenirs mostly are about 'Ot and Sien', two children written about by a teacher from Roden, totally fictive.

nighthawk Says: Reflections from windows behind you can influence your photograph.....and you d better not photograph in the closeness of keepers....sigh
Do not take photographs ... sigh.....
nighthawk Says: You most certainly know the signs that forbid you to take photographs. Most of the time I ignore them for with my digital camera I do not need to use flash light.So did I this afternoon....yet the people that worked there didn t see the humour of it and hauthy demanded me to...
though it might be different when no exhibition s held.....
Fun Alternatives: Symmetry ... at both sides of the gate are the buildings that once were the stables... nowadays it s part of the museum.

The surrounding area of Roden has much to offer and it sure is worth a visit at the tourist information office.

Leave a footstep in the sandslip of the time...Ferdinand Domela Nieuwenhuis, 1846-1919.
This walk is part of the Domala-hike, which leads through the four most northern provinces of our country.
Startingpoint is Haren, a little village close to the town of Groningen, and the ending point is Steenwijk, in the province of Overijssel.
The hike is named after Domela Nieuwenhuis, a well known Dutch socialist who was very popular in his day and age in the northern provinces.
He fought the inhuman circumstances in which workers had to live and do their work in the moors.
People will walk through a landscape of moor, pastures, woods and swamps.
Total length of the route is 165 kilometers.
Equipment: Walking shoes, light rain coat, clothing in layers.

nighthawk Says: Lovely robes....guess they are part of the flower arrangements too....ooops! accidently got the bed as well in it.....
nighthawk Says: It must have been tough to keep the fire going since there s only this small door to clean the fireplace.
Some more pots I saw in the cellar..
nighthawk Says: I did not dare to use my flash so the picture is a bit shaken but you can see the pot on the right contains green beans and the pot on the left has turned sour. Brrr...
nighthawk Says: First we went into the cellar, which I found surprisingly small. On the shelfs were pots and bottles, some as old as 50 years or so.Can't imagine those still being edible tho....
nighthawk Says: Let s go inside and see what they have to offer.... Unaware of the fact that I was not allowed to photograph I looked forward to visiting this place...
