Hoptille, Hamlet in Leeuwarden, Netherlands

Located between Dronrijp and Hijlaard, Hoptille centers around a bridge crossing the Bolswardertrekvaart waterway in the Friesland province of the Netherlands.

Records from 1511 document the settlement as Hoptilla, which later evolved to Hoptille, with the suffix 'tille' referring to an immovable bridge in Frisian language.

The former tollhouse from 1652, now registered as a national monument, stands at the northern side of the bridge and previously served as a bakery.

A cycling route starts at the southern part of the bridge, following the former towpath toward the village of Baard and continuing to the city of Bolsward.

The exact location at coordinates 53.168611 latitude and 5.682222 longitude marks this small settlement within the larger municipality of Leeuwarden.

Location: Leeuwarden
