Cheese factory the Expectation
At the corner of Kwadijkerweg and Purmerdijk, diagonally opposite the bridge over the Purmerringvaart to Kwadijk, is a white-painted building built in 1904 as cheese factory De Verwachting.
Farmers from the Purmer and immediate surroundings supplied their milk to be made into cheese and butter. The factory was used as such until 1938. After that, the building was used for storage, as a butcher's shop and for several years it has been a group accommodation.
