Kinderdijk

Dive into a world of windmills, water, and willpower. The canals, mills, and pumping stations of Kinderdijk have kept our feet dry for over 700 years. At our World Heritage site, you can discover all about the hard work of millers and the typically Dutch traditions of this area. Learn what the mills used to do, take a look inside a museum mill, and visit the beautiful Wisboom pumping station with the impressive flywheels in the engine room yourself and explore the rich history. Get answers to the question of why Kinderdijk is actually called Kinderdijk and let the World Heritage site impress you as you embark on a journey with one of our guides as they tell you all about the water management in Kinderdijk. Join us on a boat tour, as we have special offerings of packages designed specifically for groups. These packages are for groups of 15 or more and must always be reserved in advance, and can be booked via our website: www.kinderdijk.com/groups. Let’s experience the beauty of Kinderdijk UNESCO World Heritage together!
