The Zaanse Schans is a village in the municipality Zaanstad, located opposite Zaandijk on the Zaan. Every year, around 900,000 visitors visit this open-air museum, which was built with the idea of showing the historical heritage of this oldest industrial area in the Netherlands.

Replica of the First Albert Heijn Store

Highlight • Historical Site

This is how the largest supermarket chain in the Netherlands got its start - the contrast to the current AH XL could hardly be greater.

This walk does not excel in beauty. Also runs entirely on asphalt. It's nice to walk past industrial heritage with the Zaanse Schans as the highlight.

Not such a nice tour that the walk goes through industry.

Tour of Zaanse Schans done.
Nice area.
will cost you 17.50 euros next year.
Zaanse Schans is nice but a lot of industry in the area that you can smell every now and then.
All in all if you want to see windmills Kinderdijk is a better option!
