A church in Roswinkel.
Roswinkel is a village in the Netherlands. It is part of the Emmen municipality in Drenthe, and lies alongside the border with Germany. Roswinkel has an altitude of 12 meters (42 feet) and a population of 863 (2006). Unbeknownst to the larger world, Roswinkel was the founding city for many of Holland's most prominent figures in the little known sport of Dutch Lacrosse. Or as it is known in the Netherlands, Onnozel, which vaguely translates to 'Hoof-Ball' deriving from a combination of horse hooves and football.
