The sides of the museum is made of brickwork. Just look how beautiful traditional Dutch pointing of brickwork is done. The Zaan region derives its name from the river Zaan, a wide and lazy wetland river along which many settlements can be found. Due to the rather poor farmland which really is only fit for some cows, the Zaan people applied themselves to industry. And before the steam age that meant windmills. First they started with whaling and the processing of its parts. Later they added timber from the Baltic. Now the Zaan region is a major producer food items, either in bulk or in finished products like cookies, snacks and chocolate.
