Woltjes Museum: a home above the bakery

At Woltjes Backerij in Volendam there is a small display about village life in the past. The reconstructed house on the first floor is part of a location with a shop and baking demonstrations.

Kitchen and bedroom

The historical display includes a kitchen and a bedroom, among other things. See how daily functions come together in the furnished rooms. This is a reconstructed living environment, not an untouched, preserved house of specific occupants.

Combining bakery and museum

Stroopwafel demonstrations and tastings form another part of Woltjes. Ask which activity is taking place at the time of your visit and what is included. A shop visit, a demonstration and a tour of the museum need not have the same admission.

Confirm times and address

Its own information mentions daily opening, but external listings differ in opening and closing times. A different house number also appears. Use Haven 98 as your reference point and have museum access and access to the upper floor confirmed in advance.

View the home display as a separate part alongside any baking demonstration.

Before you go

If you are coming specially for the museum, phone for the exact hours and admission; guides give different times.
