On July 27, 2022, the new exhibition 'In the Footsteps of Titus Brandsma' was opened at the De Tiid museum in Bolsward.
In this exhibition, we follow the timeline through the eventful life of recently canonized Titus Brandsma.
Titus Brandsma, a proud Frisian, Catholic, Carmelite friar, professor, resistance hero, journalist, martyr, and mystic. He became known for his compassion for others, his struggle against the German occupiers, National Socialism, and freedom of the press.
- 1985: Beatified in Rome by Pope John Paul II

In our time, his beliefs and ideas continue to inspire many and are more relevant than ever.
Let yourself be inspired by the life story of Titus and visit the De Tiid museum in Bolsward.
