Warns, Battle of

Years: 1345 - 1345

The Battle of Warns is a battle from the Frisian-Hollandic War between Count William IV of Holland and the Frisians that takes place on September 26, 1345.

The annual commemoration of the battle is important for many nationalist Frisians.

The Frisians win the battle and repel the Dutchmen from the eastern coast of the Zuiderzee.

“One cannot and must not try to erase the past merely because it does not fit the present.”

― Golda Meir, My Life (1975)
