New for 2008 "Old Dutch Cheese Making"
  cheese making nl The Dutch love their cheese. Over the ages, the Dutch have become well known throughout the world for their high quality cheese. Gouda cheese is a Dutch favorite.

Nelis' Dutch Village, using vintage 19Th century equipment, has recreated a typical farm house cheese making operation producing our own Gouda cheese. From cow's milk to finished cheese wheel, visitors can see it all.
     
 
In our theme park we have many activities and sights that reflect a Netherlands Village from 200 years ago. To these we have added new attractions that are shown below.

In this presentation, our staff will help you understand the characteristics of "real delftware". You will become acquainted with the various quality levels of delftware and will learn how to read and interpret markings.

Our aim is to give you even more pleasure as you add to your beautiful delftware collection.
