On Saturday, May 10, 2025, Kinderdijk UNESCO World Heritage will be dedicated to both National Mill Day and Craftsmen’s Day. This is a unique opportunity to see the centuries-old mills in operation and experience traditional crafts up close. During this special day, you’ll discover the power of wind and water and meet artisans who preserve ancient crafts. The full program will be announced later, but you can expect a day full of activities for all ages.
Combine your visit with the Kinderdijk Tour to make the most of this day. During this tour, a local guide will immerse you in the fascinating story of Kinderdijk UNESCO World Heritage.
In addition to National Mill Day and Craftsmen’s Day, it’s also Windmill Day in Kinderdijk. This means that, with sufficient wind (at least wind force 2-3), as many mills as possible will be operating between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM. It is a wonderful sight to see as many rotating windmills as possible at the same time.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to see the mills in full glory and learn more about water management in the Netherlands. Order your tickets now and experience a day full of craft and tradition!
