Listen | Tram
You are now walking down the street where the steam tram used to enter Volendam. From 1906, this tram rode into Volendam with a lot of huffing and puffing.
At first, we had to get used to this noisy, weird mode of transport. Just like some painters. You can see this, for instance, in the drawing by Pennoyer, who thought the tram was just a curious thing.
But soon we were very happy with the tram. For it brought many tourists to our village. Later, an electric tram even came.
At the end, walk up the drawbridge and turn right into Edam road, keeping the water on the right.
