Klompen museum (clog museum), Noardburgum, the Netherlands


 Clogs are one of the items you can relate to my country. 

In the past there were various type of clogs made. Work clogs, clogs with high heels, clogs as a wedding present for the bride. Each region had his own style of clogs. At this museum they are specialized for the Frisian clogs. Since 1840 the same family are making these clogs (6th generation today). 

The museum shows various clogs from a long time ago. They also are from abroad (like Japan, Spain and Sweden). They show how a clog was made back in the days (1800's) and today (engine).

Back in the days, it didn't make a difference if the clog was safe to use at work. Nowadays they have to be certified as a CE shoe.

It is really interesting to see all these clogs. For some clogs it is a miracle that people could walk on these clogs. Not comfortable at all! 

All pictures and videos are my own.
