This page is meant to contain some pictures
of (people from) Midwolda and its surroundings. These pictures are changed every
six months. People from all over the world, including former inhabitants, will be able to get an
idea about the looks of present day Midwolda and its surroundings.
Until April 1st, 2004, the theme on this
page is "Farmhouses in Midwolda". As the number of farmers in our
country has reduced significantly over the last few years, many farmhouses all
over the country have disappeared. There is no area in the Netherlands where the
number of beautiful farmhouses is so high as in the Oldambt, including Midwolda.
In Midwolda there are some real jewels from the past, although many farmhouses
have lost their agricultural use and are put to a different usage
nowadays.
