Museum and Workshop Houtstad IJlst

The Houtstad IJlst museum is your gateway to the city's past. Ideally situated beside the River Geeuw, in a largely transparent building, you'll be able to enjoy water on one side, countryside on the other, and a reminder of the city's strong ties with timber – a direct line of sight to the local sawmill. During the visit, make sure to admire the work of the Nooitgedagt factory. Most famous for their skates, both wooden and steel, you'll also learn the history of their carpentry tools and toys.
