The "stienen man"

The Stenen Man on the Westerzeedijk in Harlingen is a replica of a monumental boundary marker that was placed in 1576 to mark the center of the Vijfdeelenzeedijken. This Renaissance-style boundary marker was inspired by the Roman gods Terminus, of the frontier, and Janus, of the beginning and the end. The official name was terminus, but popularly, it turned it into Stone Man.
