I was already a pretty big fan of WinterWelVaart. It’s very cute, has historical stuff and it’s gotten massive. But now they got CHOCOLATE EIERBALLEN!! I will live there next year

This weekend you could enjoy the sight of many historical boats at WinterWelVaart. Some nautical themes can also be explored in one of our episodes with Constance Willems (S2E2) on the history of knitting in Groningen.
