The Zaans Museum in Zaandam covers the history of the Zaanstreek region - its trading past, windmills and the characteristic green timber houses. Next door, the Verkade Experience takes visitors behind the scenes of the famous Dutch biscuit and chocolate brand. The two attractions share a waterfront location on the banks of the Zaan.
