St. Boniface


The Chapel of St. Boniface

He was A Catholic Priest who came to Dokkum to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, but was killed for doing so. The story is that he would put his Bible over his head for protection against a death blow to the head. Eventually the City felt bad for what they did and converted to Christianity. Now they honor him.






This little pool was once believed to be a pool of healing 

I will have some more pics of this chapel at a later date. 



I tried to get a better shot, but this is a picture of Saint Boniface on a store window.
