Herema State, Medieval fortified manor in Joure, Netherlands.
The Herema State building features a combination of medieval defense elements and residential architecture, with formal gardens surrounding the main structure.
Built in 1625 by Ebele van Grovestins and Bartold Tjaerda van Starkenborgh, the estate replaced an earlier house that was demolished in 1581.
The estate exemplifies the architectural traditions of Frisian nobility, with its stins design reflecting the regional building methods of northern Netherlands.
The former manor now functions as the municipal building of De Fryske Marren, with its surrounding park remaining open for public visits.
The grounds include a park designed in 1848 by Lucas Pieters Roodbaard, incorporating natural elements with formal garden features.
