Garyp (Dutch; Flemish: Garijp[3]) is a village in the municipality of Tytsjerksteradiel within the province of Friesland, Netherlands. It had a population of around 1,894 in January 2017.[4]
The village was first mentioned between 1325 and 1336 as Garipe and means "village of the river bank".[5] Garyp developed into a stretched-out village on a sandy ridge. The current Dutch Reformed church dates from 1838; however, the first church was built around 1100.[6] Around 1930, the peat in the region was excavated.
Garyp was home to 620 people in 1840.[7]
