Reahûs (Dutch: Roodhuis) is a village in Súdwest-Fryslân municipality in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 170 in January 2017.[3]
History
The village was first mentioned in 1861 as Roodhuis, and means "red house" which refers to a farm from 1639 with a red tiled roof.[4] The farm used to contain a clandestine church for the Catholics.[5]
In 1892, the Catholic St Martin Church was built in Gothic Revival style. The church contains a 15th century statue of St Martin on a horse which was originally located in Easterein and hidden during the Reformation.[5]
Reahûs was home to 28 people in 1840.[6] Reahûs was awarded village status in 1955. Before 2018, the village was part of the Littenseradiel municipality and before 1984 it belonged to Hennaarderadeel municipality.[6]
