History

Hottinga State, drawn in 1723

The name Holprijp first appeared on a map in 1433.[2] In 1414 the medieval jurisdiction was still referred to as Ripera fiarndel or Rijperda fiarndel.[3] The hamlet has grown and shrunk over the centuries.

This hamlet used to be home to a significant stins, the Hottinga State, which is also clearly depicted on a map from 1664.[4] Another stins, the Sybranda State, also used to be located in the hamlet, belonging to the same broad family.[5] Hottinga State has been demolished and only the farm remains. The so-called huiseiland ('home island') is still very much visible by a moat and planted trees.[6]
