Welcome to The Frisian Meeting Place, the portal for information on Frisian genealogy, history and language. The goal is to preserve the story of the freedom-loving Frisians, an original Germanic tribe first documented by historians in the days of the ancient Roman Empire.

This section was inspired by an essay written by my Beppe Visser about her experience in leaving Friesland and coming to Canada in 1954. The goal of this section is for Frisian people from around the world to share their own stories - about immigration, life in Friesland, Frisian culture.. or even fiction and poetry.
The freedom-loving Frisian people have preserved the name of their ancient tribe since the times of Roman gladiators. Explore these pages for a glimpse into the fascinating history of Frisia.
