Explore Operational Windmills
The iconic windmills are the heart of Zaanse Schans. Visitors can explore several operational windmills, which once powered various industries. Step inside to see how they traditionally ground spices, sawed wood, or produced oil, offering a fascinating insight into Dutch ingenuity.
Tip: Each windmill has a small entrance fee, often combined into a Zaanse Schans Card. Consider visiting the Oil Mill "De Bonte Hen" or the Sawmill "Het Jonge Schaap" for active demonstrations.
