This is the colourful facade of the '
Internationaal Klompenmuseum' (International Wooden Shoes Museum) in de village of Eelde, that we passed during one of our recent hikes. According to their
website their collection includes more than 2,200 pairs of different clogs and other footwear with wooden soles from 43 countries, and hundreds of tools from 7 European countries. We took this photo on a Sunday morning when the museum was (still) closed, so a visit will have to wait until another time.
I'm linking to
Monday Murals.
Love the bright, bold colours used on the walls for the clogs mural! Looking forward to your return visit!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat is a museum I would like to visit. It was not too long ago that I visited "our" Bata Shoe Museum. It was much more interesting than I originally thought. I saw the famous platforms worn by Elton John in the 70s and John Lennon's original 1960s Beatle boot. : ))
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI like it very much Marleen.. who would have thought there were so many different types of clogs ☺
BeantwoordenVerwijderen...what a wonderful building, I like the colors!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWooden shoes, dat klink veel deftiger als klomp en het verdient een mooie naam omdat het vakwerk is om ze te maken.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis has to be very interesting museo - so many wooden shoes !! The mural is so nice and colorfull.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI wonder now whatever happened to my yellow clogs from Holland. :-)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat would be an interesting place to visit!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenVery nice and colourful building. I would have never guessed that there was a clog museum. It will be interesting to see what you discover inside when you visit.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHa Marleen, ziet er kleurrijk uit, lijkt me overigens erg leuk dit museum ;n keer te bezoeken.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLijkt me inderdaad de moeite waard.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWho would have thought that there'd be a museum dedicated to clogs? I did once visit a museum which was all about pencils (!) and that was actually a lot more interesting than I expected.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDat kan je niet missen als je op zoek bent! Vrolijke buitenkant in ieder geval.
BeantwoordenVerwijdereneen kleurrijk gebouw..
BeantwoordenVerwijderenen een bezoek lijkt me de moeite wel waard
