History
The village was first mentioned in 1471 as Eerndwaud. The etymology is unclear. It was sometimes called "Arendswoude" (forest of the eagle), however that is merely a corruption of the Frisian name.[3] Earnewâld developed in the 18th century as a peat excavation village. The Dutch Reformed church was built in 1794.[4]
Earnewâld was home to 310 people in 1840. The village was isolated until 1860 when a road to Garyp was constructed.[5] It is home to a shipping wharf for historic ships.[4] After World War II, it started to become a tourist water sports centre.[4]
In 2017, an Avro Lancaster bomber was salvaged from the National Park, and is on display at the visitor centre of Earnewâld.[5] The English bomber was attacked by a German fighter on the night of 4 to 5 September 1942 and crashed into the swamp. Three of the seven crew members died. Two are buried in Earnewâld. One body remains missing. The survivors were taken prisoner.[6]
Economy
Earnewald is known as a camping, fishing, bicycling and boating area and attracts a holiday crown in the summer months.[4] It is a nesting site for storks.[5] It is an access point to De Alde Feanen National Park.[7]
