Bakery
Bread from a wood-fired baker’s oven.
In this 17th-century house from the Zaan region our baker feeds his oven in the traditional way with bundles of sticks. Here he bakes delicious bread and cakes in the old-fashioned way. Since it was built in 1680 this house has been altered and improved many times. When it was erected here at the museum the bottom part of the façade was reconstructed in the 18th-century style. The decorative upper part of the façade dates from around 1835. This building was combined with the forge here at the museum. The ventilation hatches in the side wall of the forge serve as a reminder of its former function. The outside walls of the shop and forge have been finished with weatherboarding: overlapping planks that stop the rain from getting in.
1680 and 1826. Relocated here in 1972 and 1974.
