Elfstedenmonument, Installation artwork near Kanterlandse Bridge, Friesland, Netherlands.
The Elfstedenmonument features artistic elements representing each of the eleven Frisian cities through metal sculptures and architectural designs near the bridge.
The monument was created to commemorate the Elfstedentocht, a traditional ice skating tour connecting eleven Frisian cities that started in 1909.
This installation serves as a central gathering point for local events and celebrations that highlight the strong connection between Frisian communities.
The monument remains accessible throughout the year and can be reached via public transportation from major cities in Friesland.
Metal elements of the installation capture different positions of ice skaters, documenting the movements typical during the Elfstedentocht winter event.
