Description

Old part of the interior of the Wooden Shoe Workshop De Zaanse Schans Walking on wood The Wooden Shoe Workshop is situated in a former 1780 snuff and grain warehouse from the company Molenaar in Westzaan, relocated to the Zaanse Schans in 1984. Part of the storehouse has been devoted to the Wooden Shoe Museum, one of the largest and most beautiful collections of wooden shoes in the Netherlands including an absorbing audio-visual commentary of the history of this intriguing form of footwear. Free clog making demonstrations take place at regular intervals throughout the day, take approximately 5 minutes and are available in many different languages. Try on a pair, it's great fun! There are hundreds of pairs of clogs in all sizes and colours, tempting wooden shoe related souvenirs such as miniature clogs, key chains and 'money clogs' as well as an extensive range of typical Dutch souvenirs and 'must-haves' available in the workshop. Hope you like it Take care, have a wonderful day, and thanks for your support and kind comments you’ve gives me on my previous postings. It’s so inspiring!
