Hiking

The factory's old chimney, on which the company name can be read from top to bottom, is a defining feature of IJlst's skyline. For decades, the factory was a leader in the production of ice skates, children's toys, and, above all, tools.

Hiking

The largest skate maker in IJlst and probably also in the Netherlands was Nooitgedagt. Nooitgedagt has been producing skates for a century. The name recognition of Nooitgedagt mainly stems from the production of these skates. This in itself is strange, because the production of skates was only a by-product. Nooitgedagt's most important product was (carpentry) tools. Wooden children's toys have also been produced for several decades. Below is an overview of all important events surrounding the Koninklijke Fabrieken J. Nooitgedagt en Zonen N.V. IJlst.
