The Menno Monument (coordinates: 53° 5′ 56″ N, 5° 28′ 54″ E [53.098889, 5.481667]), in Witmarsum, Dutch province of Friesland, was erected on the site where the meetinghouse of the Witmarsum Mennonites once stood. Tradition says that the house of Herman and Gerrit Jansz stood here, where Menno first preached after leaving the Roman Catholic Church in 1536, and often stayed, and where he was probably married….
