Waaggebouw

The Waag building in Enkhuizen shows an image of the early Renaissance in the northern Netherlands. Even the original weighing mechanism of the weighing hall has been preserved. From 1636, the surgeon’s room was located on the first floor, as well as a meeting room and lecture hall for the surgeon’s guild. The stained glass windows of this room bear the names of the surgeons and doctors who worked in Enkhuizen between 1639 and 1654.
