★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a clock collection they have , awesome .... they have explain each and everything there and everyone can easily visit and make a tour of Time museum. " UURWERK Museum" .
Both the famous Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn and the first Zaan clockmaker were sons of millers. The 17th century Cornelis Michielszoon Volger was a clockmaker who also had interests in the windmill industry. He used a new development in the construction of clocks, namely, the pendulum. Just as the application of the crankshaft enabled planks to be sawn industrially with the help of wind power, application of the pendulum was a decisive step in the production of clocks on a larger scale.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a small museum that is definitely worth a visit. The curator, Pier, is incredibly knowledgable about the history and culture of clockmaking in the Netherlands. We felt so fortunate that he took so much time to chat with us and answer our questions. He is also working on an additional exhibit that seems like it will be fantastic.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Zaanse Schans is a unique part of the Netherlands, full of wooden houses, mills, barns and workshops. Make sure not to miss the cheese factory, pewter foundry and the various windmills.
