Historic railway line

Medemblik station
In Medemblik you will find the main station building along the railway line: this used to be the starting point of the route. Until 1936, the railway was operated by the Hollandsche IJzeren Spoorweg-Maatschappij, the first railway company in the Netherlands. Now it is a tourist route. Medemblik itself is also worth a visit: it received city rights as early as 1289. It was a prosperous port city and that wealth is clearly reflected in the many beautiful facades.
