Museum of traditions in Warffum.



Tonight cheese Fondue! Melted cheese
This was where we slept in the box, in fact there is an hotel in a very old farm dating back to 1650
This is the inside the cows were on both sides


Here at the places of tables and benches there were cows about 60 in the stable. In the middle there was a place for cow manure.
I am always interested in the traditions of the country I visit. Now after the castels this is the life of ordinary people living in the province of  Groningen.
These are the closed beds they were in the same room as kitchen 

This is the indoor well


The kitchen cooker. They used pit to heat the house
This is a typical farm , the house in front and the cattle behind ( it is still the case nowadays) huge stables mainly covered with thatch.

Some house had well and others pomp.




The school board

After a night with mosquitoes ( because of the water ) and suffocating heat due to a thunderstorm 
We arrived to Sneek!

  2. I love the history here! It's incredible to see those old buildings. I never heard of a well inside the house, but that's a great idea.
