Nederlands Stoommachine Museum

Dutch Steam Engine Museum

The Dutch Steam Engine Museum, part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage (ERIH), keeps the history alive of water pump station 'Vier Noorder Koggen' and the development and significance of steam engines in general. The original pumps and a fair number of beautiful machines, almost all working with steam, represent an interesting timeframe in the Netherlands. Steam was and is important in our daily life.

 

An important part of the museum is the original installation. The impressive centrifugal pump and its transmission adequately show what men could do more than hundred years ago. The steam engine, cause of the Industrial Revolution, is currently replaced by more efficient power sources. The museum restores, preserves and displays a wide variety of machinery from this steam past. Without their impressive power and achievements we could not have come so far as where we are now. In and around the museum many machines can be admired and, on specific hours, be visited in operational status.
