Customer experience, Craft and History come together

Working at our Experience locations

Experiences

Henri Willig likes to let its visitors leave richer than when they came. We do this at various locations and in various ways. In Edam, for instance, we have an experience about Edam cheese, various cheese tastings and a small museum de Amsterdam. In addition, there are various experiences on the farms. We are regularly looking for host and hostess colleagues who are flexibly available and enjoy using storytelling to convey the unique story of Henri Willig in general and of the location itself in particular to groups and individual guests. They also welcome guests and show them around the venue.&the location.

De Kaaswaag

In days gone by, the 'Edammertjes' were weighed in the Kaaswaag, in the historic centre of Edam. A visit to the Kaaswaag and the summer cheese market will take you back to the origins of the world-famous round cheeses. The most visited cheese market in the Netherlands is Edam's. In July and August, there are folklore demonstrations every Wednesday. These involve cheese carriers demonstrating how the heavy round Edam cheeses are transported on berries, exactly as it used to be done. This takes place on the square in front of the Kaaswaag, which dates back to 1778 and where cheese was weighed. The Cheese Weighing House houses a permanent exhibition on the art of cheese making. Of course, you can also taste and buy cheese here.
