Haarlemmermeer Museum De Cruquius

Highlight • Monument

The pumping station was built in 1849 and was in operation until 1933. With several other works the area of ​​Haarlemmerliede was drained. Since 1934 De Cruquius is an industrial monument (part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage) and houses a museum dedicated to the fight against the water. A nice cafe is right next door.

At several places along the Ringvaart there are sometimes beautiful houseboats, but there are also beautiful views and cozy places to admire.

Fort at the Liede

Highlight • Historical Site

I must have passed this place 100 times, and often wondered why the road makes such a sharp turn. It's obvious. On the other side of the water, Fort aan de Liede used to be part of the Defense Line of Amsterdam. Further along the A200 is the Fort at the Lie Bridge. To get there you have to detour a bit. nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_aan_de_Liede
