Abbegaasterketting (Dutch: [ˌɑbəˌɣaːstərˈkɛtɪŋ]; West Frisian: Abbegeasterketting or Abbegeaster Ketting) is a hamlet in the Dutch municipality of Súdwest-Fryslân in Friesland. The hamlet is located on the Wijmerts [nl], northwest of Abbega, of which the settlement is a part administratively.
Abbegaasterketting originated from a ferry service with tolls across the Wijmerts. The ferry operator's building was first attested as the Abbegaster Ketting Huys in 1718. Therefore, the hamlet's name is a compound of Abbegaaster ('from or of Abbega') and ketting ('chain'). The chain hereby refers to the chain that was drawn across the Wijmerts as part of the toll post.[3]
