The "Klompenmakerij" (Wooden Shoe Workshop) at the Zaanse Schans (Zaanstad - Holland)

The wooden shoe workshop also includes a large shop with wooden shoes or clogs to wear in all colours and sizes as well as
miniature clogs, clog slippers, etc. It also includes a wide range of typically Dutch souvenirs to suit every taste.
Did you know that decorated wooden shoes were already worn centuries ago? They were only worn on special occasions,
and sundays, to go to church with. However, they were not welcome inside the house...
