Eanjum Day 2.4

We also passed through (E)anjum and did our shopping. Build on a terp, this village is at least 2000 years old. Anyway, the Michaëlkerk is from around the year 1000. There was some money there.

Presumably some of that money came from selling the young oxen south. The “Ochsenstrasse” wound its way south from Groningen, selling oxen along the way, until they reached Cologne and the trip ended.
