Nice bridge onto quiet path

Highlight • Bridge

Narrow bridge that - upon arrival from the south side - runs down to a concrete obstacle. Driving at a lot of speed is very risky here!

The Beschuit Tower Wormer

Highlight • Monument

The tower characterizes an important part of Wormer/Jisp's history during the whaling and rusk baking industry. In the heyday (1580-1680) there were about 150 rusk bakeries that baked two-back biscuits (ship's rusk that had a long shelf life). These were transported by ship/barge to many places in our country, in particular to the rusk markets in Amsterdam for ships that sailed to the Baltic Sea, the Indies (VOC) and Brazil. Almost 30 mills in Wormer and surrounding villages were busy supplying the bakeries with the necessary flour.

The rusks were baked largely in wooden buildings. In order to prevent fires, the municipal authorities decided on December 20, 1605 that the fireplaces of the ovens had to remain extinguished between 6:00 PM and midnight to prevent overheating. After the night watchman first announced the time signals with his rattle through the village, the church bell later indicated this. However, because in the west of the village the church bell could not be heard well in certain wind directions, an extra freestanding bell tower was built in 1620. As a result of a fire in this tower, the original spire was replaced by a wooden splice in 1806. On 21 March 1896, the municipal council decided to "sell for a motion" due to dilapidation and lost function. FKG architects on the Zaan designed a plan for an exact copy of the last version of the tower with a warehouse-like building behind it (referring to the warehouses on the Zaan) that is connected to the tower by a transparent connecting space. Both components are modestly designed and detailed so that the bell tower is shown to its best advantage. Copies of the original decorative facade stones and the weather vane (depicting "Lady Fortuna") are incorporated in the reconstruction. The current location of the Beschuitstoren is slightly more to the east and next to the Dorpsstraat.

The current project was granted a permit in 2017 and will be completed in May 2018. The warehouse-like building will have a social/public function on the ground floor and 3 social rental homes on the top floor. The entire building will be built without gas, using heat pumps and solar panels.
