Seeing how it is made
Cheesemaking implements offer a tangible way into the process. Ask which step a tool was used for and read the explanation about farming. That makes cheese more than an end product in a shop.
Trade as well
The museum also looks at the cheese trade and rural life. Its location on the Waagplein helps to connect that subject with the town. However, any cheese market has its own calendar and is not a daily part of a museum ticket.
The date determines the hours
Opening is listed day by day in a calendar. It may differ from fixed times given elsewhere. So check your specific date, even if you only want to plan a short visit. A treasure hunt is available for children.
Before you go
Check the daily calendar; museum hours and cheese market times are separate arrangements.
