Don't just experience Harderwijk during Aaltjesdagen, but also taste it at Eel Smokehouse Dries van den Berg and Sons.
The Eel Museum is free to enter. There is plenty to do during Aaltjesdagen . There is a bouncy castle and a play boat for the children. No visit is complete without a demonstration on the best way to smoke eels. You can immediately taste how smoked Harderwiekers taste, and there is live music on the terrace.
As the ultimate Dutch Eel Ambassador, Dries van den Berg has his own Eel Museum. It is exceptionally fun, educational, and interactive for young and old.
You can see the eel traps placed in the water where eels are caught. Smoke your own eel with the life-sized eel smoking game. Watch the special animated film to learn how eels live. And have you ever seen an eel leather bag? That and many more eel highlights can be seen at the Dutch Eel Museum.
