Highlights
Haarlem city centre shows many old and historical buildings. We’ve highlighted a few of them which are definitely worth of a visit during your trip in Haarlem.

Built in 1779 and in 1932, the mill was burnt to the ground, but with the support of the residents of Haarlem it was restored to its former glory.

A Haarlem city gate dating from around 1400. The gate is positioned at the end of the old route from Amsterdam to Haarlem. .

The Waag was built in renaissance style between 1594 and 1599, based on the design and supervision of Haarlem city architect Lieven de Key.
