Top Netherlands How to Get Around in 2026

A self-guided walking game through Haarlem's old centre, following the city's story of printing, painting and quiet charity: the hidden courtyards (hofjes) built for the poor, museums grown from merchants' collections, and the statue of Laurens Janszoon Coster, whom Haarlem still credits with inventing movable type. Each stop hides a puzzle you solve on your phone, at your own pace. The app tells you what you are looking at: an 1849 chemist's shop, the Proveniershof, the almshouses that became the Frans Hals Museum, Teylers, the oldest museum in the Netherlands (1784), the Bakenesserkerk's slender tower, and the town hall built where a count's hunting lodge stood in 1370.
