Good service

In the museum - expositions in the open air of a typical Dutch landscape, besides the unique examples of wooden architecture of the 17th - 18th centuries (wooden houses, windmills), museums, etc., you can visit the workshops. In Zaans-Schans there are: a cheese farm; production of clamps (traditional wooden shoes); weaving workshop; Cooper (production of barrels); chocolate workshop; a liquor store and a tin shop. The casting of tin is a rare phenomenon today. it was not replaced by machine production. Here you can watch the work of the master and buy pewter products from souvenirs to kitchen utensils. All products are cast by hand. According to some sources, one of the last remaining tinsmiths works here. The workshop works without days off, but depending on the season, the time is different: from April to September from 10.00 to 18.00, and the rest of the time from 11.00 to 16.00.
