Getting To And Around Zaanstad Public transportation In 1974 the different towns and villages were incorporated into the municipality of Zaanstad and in 2011 the council moved into their new offices in Zaandam. In the later half of the 19th century the popular French painter, Claude Monet, of the impressionist movement stayed in the area and did several paintings of local beauty spots. In 2004 a sculpture was put up in Zandaam by the Yugoslavian artist Slavomir Miletic called “The Woodworker” in honour of the craft.įrom The 1600’s onwards, the land around Zanstreek was one of the main food producing areas of the Netherlands and made a contribution so great to the national food production that it was referred to as “the food basket of the Netherlands” Whaling was also very important at this time, with the area having access to the North Sea. In 1697, the Russian Tsar “Peter the Great” stayed in the area for 4 months under a pseudonym so that he could study and learn about carpentry and shipbuilding. Wood from Scandinavia used to be highly thought of in industry as the cold conditions made it grow slowly, this in turn made it very strong. Later on the wood from these mills also went to the making of paper. From the 1500’s the area around the river Zaan that was known as Zaanstreek contained a great many windmills whose primary purpose was to take in the lumber that had been imported from Scandinavia and to season and cut it so that it could be used in the shipbuilding industry. Much of the local wealth in the Zaanstad region has been built up in the timber industry. But the history of its components however goes much further back.
