Epemastate

Epemastate is a historic country house in Ysbrechtum showing typical features of 17th-century construction in northern Netherlands. The building displays characteristic windows, rooflines, and stonework typical of estates from that era and region.

The house was built in 1625 and is listed as a protected national monument. It belongs to the long tradition of large country houses in the Friesland region that date from the early 17th century onward.

The building shows how wealthy landowners lived during the Dutch Golden Age and what architectural style they preferred. You can see from the details how much they valued solid craftsmanship and careful construction.

Because the building is protected as a monument, any changes or renovations require prior approval from authorities. Visitors should check locally for current information about accessibility and whether tours or viewing is available.

The house sits in a region where old waterways and farmland blend together and still shape the landscape today. Its location connects the building's history directly with how the Frisian countryside developed over centuries.
