    Top of Amsterdam Group tour 2017 Guide cycles with group |270 - 350 km | 8 days / 7 nights Not until the 17th Century large parts of the area north of Amsterdam were recovered from the sea reclaimed through the use of hundreds of windmills. It’s here that you will find the typical Dutch landscape of polders, mills, harbours, & tulips. The route brings you over small dykes and country roads. Many of the windmills are still in working order. You can get a feel for the old Dutch atmosphere in Enkhuizen, Hoorn, Edam and Volendam: traditional costumes, sailing ships & long johns on the clotheslines. On day 4 you’ll sail to Texel, an island with thousands of sheep and a magnificent nature reserve. Back on the mainland the route brings you to Holland’s most beautiful dune area. These are also the only kilometers you will be cycling above sea level! Alkmaar will also provide a good picture of ancient times. It is the capital of Dutch cheese with its own cheese market and weigh-house for cheese. In Zaanse Schans, a lovely little hamlet on the banks of the river Zaan, the mills, houses, shops and traditional Dutch crafts bring the past to life.

  • National Museums in the Netherlands Felicity Bodenstein
    Building National Museums in Europe 1750-2010. Conference proceedings from EuNaMus, European National Museums: Identity Politics, the Uses of the Past and the European Citizen, Bologna 28-30 April 2011. Peter Aronsson & Gabriella Elgenius (eds) EuNaMus Report No 1. Published by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.ep.liu.se/ecp_home/index.en.aspx?issue=064 © The Author. National museums in the Netherlands Felicity Bodenstein Summary Geographically speaking, national museums in the Netherlands constitute of a group that is, comparative to other countries, more evenly distributed between the country's major cities than is generally the case - reflecting, to a certain extent, the nation’s origins in a union of individual provinces. Although an important branch of national museums developed in the Hague in the nineteenth century as the direct initiative of the monarchy founded in 1815, this has not been, as in Belgium, the unique driving force of nationally representative museums – and there has been no concentration of national museums in the capital – as Amsterdam was not the main seat of the royal house. So it is that some of the oldest museums, related to the monarchy, are situated in The Hague, but that Amsterdam and Leiden both constitute important centres for national museums. The creation of the museums in each of these cities is related to different forms of initiative and origins. One can, in a sense, historically relate more civic and private initiatives to certain museums in Amsterdam, in the case of The Hague, the most important museums relate directly to the projects of the monarchy and in Leiden, to the development of the University.
