Saet en Cruyt: seeds and horticulture at a new address

The Nationaal Saet en Cruyt Museum focuses on horticultural seeds and the horticultural history of West Friesland. The name remains linked to Andijk, but the current website gives Enkhuizen as the place to visit.

Plan your visit ↗

Small material, big subject

Seeds are the starting point for growing, processing and trade. Look at which objects are used to show those steps. Here a small object can raise a great many questions about the work that comes before it.

Collection and store

Besides the display there is a store with documented objects. This is not a freely accessible extra gallery: visits take place on request and with a guide. Let them know a subject in advance if you want to see specific material.

Confirm the address first

Older guides report closure at the Andijk location, while the current website states an opening on Westerstraat in Enkhuizen. Have that location and the visiting options confirmed directly. That way you avoid a trip to the former polder pumping station.

Before you go

Confirm your visit to Westerstraat 111 in Enkhuizen; old information about Andijk is not current enough.
