  • Welstands- En Monumente Ncommissie Edam- Volendam Jaarverslag 2020
    WELSTANDS- EN MONUMENTE NCOMMISSIE EDAM- VOLENDAM JAARVERSLAG 2020 VOORWOORD 2020 was een bijzonder jaar, dat ook voor de Welstands- en Monumentencommissie Edam-Volendam in het teken van Corona stond. De commissie heeft de situatie goed kunnen opvangen en is direct na de ingang van de beperkende maatregelen overgegaan op online- vergaderingen. Ondanks de technische moeilijkheden waarmee dit soms gepaard gaat, is het gelukt om ook dit jaar alle aanvragers en bezoekers die bij de vergadering aanwezig wilden zijn, te ontvangen. Corona lijkt geen remmende werking gehad te hebben op het aantal aanvragen. Het aantal door de commissie behandelde plannen was in 2020 hoger dan in 2019. Uit gesprekken met particuliere aanvragers kwam naar voren dat de lock- down vaak juist een stimulans was om hun woning te verbouwen. Gepaard aan de grote bouwactiviteit van particulieren ziet de commissie in 2020 de verstedelijkingsdruk vooral ook toenemen bij een aantal grotere transformatieprojecten. De commissie staat heel positief tegenover het beleid om de grote woningbehoefte te concentreren op bestaande locaties die vrijkomen voor transformatie en herbestemming. De taak van de commissie is om de aanvragers te helpen om programma en architectuur goed in te passen in de omgeving en zorgvuldig af te stemmen op de bestaande ruimtelijke kwaliteiten, in het bijzonder waar het gaan om het beschermde stadgezicht en het landelijk gebied. Een bijzonder project, waarover de commissie het bestuur in 2020 adviseerde, is de herbestemming van het historische complex van het Hoogheemraadschap aan de Schepenmakersdijk Edam, waar op zorgvuldige wijze appartementen worden gerealiseerd in de verschillende monumentale gebouwen. Een ander voorbeeld van een meer grootschalige herbestemming in het beschermde stadsgezicht van Edam is de Baandervesting (voormalige Kornäs-terrein) waar 81 woningen worden gerealiseerd in de vorm van een groot stadsblok met individuele panden en diverse architectonische expressie.

  • Walking Route
    Walking route 1. Photo studio Fotograaf Volendam: every year, thousands of tourist come to Volendam to take a photo in traditional costume at ‘Fotograaf Volendam. The traditional Volendam costume is famous all over the world, because many painters captured the former Volendammers on their paintings. The main feature of the Volendam costume is the ‘hul’ a lace cap that services as a headgear. Another typical part of the Volendam costume is the necklace of blood coral. The golden piece in the middle of the necklace was passed on from mother to daughter. Yet, the recognizable ‘hul’ and the necklace were only wont on Sundays and holidays! Some Volendam women still wear the traditional costume every day. Of course you can also experience what it is like to wear this beautiful traditional costume. Who would not like to have this photo at home? It is a very nice memory of the unique village of Volendam. 2. Praathuis: in the middle of ‘de Dijk’ you will find ‘Het Praathuis’: a small wooden square house with a beautiful view of the harbour. Volendam men have been gathering here for years to discuss the latest news updates. A kind of local pub, without beer. And without women, because they are not welcome in “Het Praathuis”. Next to ‘Het Praathuis’ you will see a bench with a bronze statue, also known as "De Bap". Feel free to sit next to him on the couch and take a nice photo! On the other side of ‘Het Praathuis’ you see a bell. When a couple was getting married, they were greeted by friends and family at the ‘Klokkenpaal’.

  • Paling Uit Volendam
    Paling uit Volendam Een hit van platina P.T. van Kampen September 2008 Jahcs Paling uit Volendam Een hit van platina P.T. van Kampen Masterthesis Culturele Geografie Faculteit Ruimtelijke Wetenschappen Rijks universiteit Groningen Afstudeerbegeleider: prof. P.P.P. Huigen September 2008 2 Voorwoord Muziek! Daar ben ik mee opgegroeid. En de geografie heeft mij ook al van kinds af aan geboeid. Er is dan ook geen betere plek dan in deze eindscriptie van de master Cuturele Geografie om de twee onderwerpen te combineren. De mogelijkheden hierin zijn eindeloos, getuige de aanloop tot dit uiteindelijke onderwerp. Allereerst ben ik begonnen met een zoektocht naar representaties in muziek, vervolgens kwam ik bij specifieke muziekstijlen uit álle delen in de wereld, maar uiteindelijk kwam ik terecht bij de palingpop. Daar ben ik helaas niet mee opgegroeid, dus vandaar dat ik mij de afgelopen tijd in dit genre verdiept heb. Groot steun en toeverlaat heb ik gehad van mijn familie, in het bijzonder van mijn vader. Al tijdens de scripties die mijn twee zussen geschreven hebben, was hij een soort ‘spiritual inspirator’. En ook bij deze scriptie heeft hij mij er doorheen geholpen. De late uurtjes die we gemaakt hebben, zullen niet ongemerkt voorbij gegaan worden. Ik wil tevens mijn zussen en mijn moeder bedanken voor alle motiverende kaartjes die ze gestuurd hebben. Geografisch gezien vormen al die kaartjes een interessant beeld: ze hebben een hecht cluster gevormd op mijn prikbord. Een tweede dankwoord gaat uit naar dr. Tialda Haartsen. Voordat we besloten hadden dat we er niet uitkwamen met mijn onderwerpen, heb ik het toch erg gezellig gehad bij haar.

    Amsterdam PRE-RIVERBOAT VACATION STRETCHERS OCTOBER 2021 USA & CANADA: 800-631-6277 x1 | INTERNATIONAL: 415-962-5700 x1 Amsterdam Welcome to Amsterdam! Known for its artistic heritage, elaborate canal system, and narrow houses with gabled facades—some of the legacies of the 17th-century Dutch Golden Age—Amsterdam is also the Netherland’s capital city. The small scale of the buildings and the intimacy of the streets, canals, and squares create an atmosphere that is so unique, you’ll find yourself totally enamored by its charm. Adding to this city’s unique culture and character is cycling—bicycles are everywhere (it’s estimated there are 30,000 more bicycles than Amsterdammers!), and the orderly procession of bicyclists along the numerous bike paths certainly adds to the city’s appeal. Of course, Amsterdam is also known for its art, and the Van Gogh Museum, the Rijksmuseum (where you’ll find works by Rembrandt and Vermeer), and the Stedelijk (where you’ll find modern art galore) are some of the stars of Amsterdam’s museum district. With so many sights and things to experience and do, Amsterdam is truly a delightful city that should be given due time to visit. 3-NIGHT AMSTERDAM VACATION STRETCHER (OCTOBER 1-4, 2021) $1,199 PP DOUBLE OCCUPANCY— EXECUTIVE ROOM $1,699 PP SINGLE OCCUPANCY— EXECUTIVE ROOM INCLUDED • 3-night stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station (October 1-4) • Hotel check-in is at 3 pm on October 1; checkout is at 12 pm on October 4 • Half-day City Walking Tour (October 2) • Full-day Windmills, Cheese, and

This research is dealing precisely with these topics in the specific context of Volendam. Volendam is a town located 22km from Amsterdam.

  • Edam - Amsterdam Tour Holland: Self-Guided Cycling
    Edam - Amsterdam Tour Holland: Self-Guided Cycling North Holland is truly a wonderful waterside region with hundreds of ponds, creeks, lakes, and canals. The many idyllic landscapes and the enchanting silence of this delightful Dutch province will definitely seduce you. It's almost unbelievable that this quiet land with its charming villages, beautiful farms, and historic windmills is only 25 minutes from Amsterdam. For this cycling holiday, you will stay in the carefully selected cozy, three-star Hotel De Fortuna in the "cheese city" of Edam. It's peacefully located in the center of this picturesque small town. The rooms are situated in five characteristic North Holland houses with a typical Dutch atmosphere. Most rooms overlook a stylish garden on the banks of a small canal. In the summer, you can sit in the garden and enjoy the flowers, singing birds, and small pleasure boats drifting by. From Edam you’ll cycle to the fascinating city of Amsterdam, but also to a number of the most delightful places in North-Holland: Hoorn, De Rijp, Volendam, Monnickendam, and the peninsular village of Marken!
