Whaling brought prosperity to Ameland, and during that period, many houses were built, the so-called "commander's houses." Many of these houses have been preserved and are still inhabited.
Besides the houses, many whale bones have been preserved; these so-called "Kakebienen" (whale bones) still adorn many gardens.
