Slide 1 of 7
Discover the fascinating story of the draining of the Haarlemmermeer in the Cruquius Museum. In the iconic steam pumping station De Cruquius – a top 100 national monument – you will marvel at the power of the 19th century steam engine that defeated the 'Waterwolf'. In the adjacent Cruquius pavilion you will wander past large and small stories from the history of the Haarlemmermeerpolder after the draining. Cruquius Museum tells about the struggle for dry feet in a wet country, then and now.
