The algebra $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}(H)$ was introduced by Alekseev-Grosse-Schomerus and Buffenoir-Roche and quantizes the character variety of the Riemann surface $Σ_{g,n}\!\setminus\! D$ ($D$ is an open disk). In this article we define a holonomy map in that quantized setting, which associates a tensor with components in $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}(H)$ to tangles in $(Σ_{g,n}\!\setminus\!D) \times [0,1]$, generalizing previous works of Buffenoir-Roche and Bullock-Frohman-Kania-Bartoszynska. We show that holonomy behaves well for the stack product and the action of the mapping class group; then we specialize this notion to links in order to define a generalized Wilson loop map. Thanks to the holonomy map, we give a geometric interpretation of the vacuum representation of $\mathcal{L}_{g,0}(H)$ on $\mathcal{L}_{0,g}(H)$. Finally, the general results are applied to the case $H=U_{q^2}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ in relation to skein theory and the most important consequence is that the stated skein algebra of a compact oriented surface with just one boundary edge is isomorphic to $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}\big( U_{q^2}(\mathfrak{sl}_2) \big)$. Throughout the paper we use a graphical calculus for tensors with coefficients in $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}(H)$ which makes the computations and definitions very intuitive.
