Terwispel is a village consisting of about 1000 inhabitants in the municipality of Opsterland in the east of Friesland , the Netherlands. Its neighbouring villages are Tijnje/De Tynje (west), Nij Beets (north-west), Beetsterzwaag/Beetstersweach (north), Lippenhuizen/Lippenhúzen (south-east), Gorredijk/De Gordyk (South), Langezwaag/Langsweagen (south-west) and Luxwoude/Lúkswâld (also south-west). In the 11th century Terwispel was founded as a colony for peat digging in the woods of South-east Fryslân. This was essential to the economy of most of The Netherlands as dried peat called turf was the most common fuel. However, as the diggers turned further east into Drenthe, Terwispel lost her prosperity. At that time Terwispel was much larger than it is nowadays, for also present day neighbouring village Tijnje was part of the Terwispel community. At the beginning of the 20th century, when the first freeways appeared, and plans were made for the freeway A7 to be laid through this town, Terwispel split up into Tijnje and Terwispel as it now remains. ==External links== * (Website about Terwispel ) * (dorpsfeest ) * (Website of v.v.
