أبرز ما فيها

Step into the storybook streets of Hoorn, once one of the wealthiest cities of the Dutch Golden Age. This 2-hour walking tour takes you through centuries of trade, shipbuilding, religion, and resistance. Hear about heroic sailors, explosive naval battles, the shadow of the VOC, and the clash between Remonstrants and Gomarists. Walk past the Hoofdtoren and former VOC warehouses where ships once set sail for the East Indies. See the weigh house, the controversial statue of Jan Pieterszoon Coen, and the mighty church that sparked riots. Learn how the Baltic grain trade quietly made Hoorn richer than spice. Your expert guide brings local legends, architecture, and hidden history to life — from underground tunnels to a pirate who climbed the Spanish flagship’s mast. The tour is conducted in English. Dutch is available upon request.

About Hoorn

Hoorn, on the IJsselmeer north of Amsterdam, was a Golden Age trading port, and its harbour, gabled houses and steam tram recall that era.

Hoorn was a base of the Dutch East India Company, and its seventeenth-century wealth is plain in the streets around the harbour. The Roode Steen square holds the old weigh house and a statue of Jan Pieterszoon Coen, the company's governor-general, who was born here. A squat harbour tower, the Hoofdtoren, guards the entrance to the basin. Cape Horn takes its name from the town, after the navigator Willem Schouten, born in Hoorn, first rounded it in 1616.
