 Antique Stoves |
Govert Flinckstraat 402 Amsterdam 1074 CJ Netherlands +31 (0)20 679 3025 http://www.harrievangennip.nl/ info@harrievangennip.nl |
There's a place for everything in Holland! In the Pijp district, not far from the famous Albert Cuypstraat, is this unbelievable store - a great find for those on the lookout for an antique stove. Harrie van Gennip's collection is made up of about a hundred stoves from all over Europe. Most of them date from 1870 to1935, have been expertly restored and are ready for use. Van Gennip has turned his hobby into a career and he travels regularly throughout the whole of Europe to add to his burgeoning treasure trove. See website for online galleries and more.

 Famous beer is brewed here |
Stadhouderskade 78 Amsterdam 1072 AE Netherlands +31 (0)20 523 9666 http://www.heinekenexperience.com info@heinekenexperience.com |
In 1864 Gerard Adriaan Heineken took over De Hooiberg (the haystack) brewery, at the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal. This takeover purchase laid the foundation for one of the world's largest modern breweries. In 1868 the company started construction of the brewery situated at the Stadhouderskade. It has been out of use since 1988. Nowadays it serves as a company museum and a meeting and information centre. It shows you the history of Heineken breweries, the horses' stables, a pub, the old copper brewery house, a film theatre and exhibitions. Review © 2007, Wcities |
