About Poptaslot

Poptaslot is a type of luxurious house often used by and/or built for the nobility of Frisia, many of which are built to look like castles (the term literally means "stone-house")—in the Dutch province of Friesland . It was founded somewhere between 1512 and 1525, probably by Sasker van Camstra. It was probably named Heringastate when it was founded, using his mother’s surname Heringa. Around 1631 it was significantly changed and modernised.
