Salt from the Eastern Scheldt

In saltworks, natural salt is purified so we can safely eat or use it. This craft has existed since Roman times. The only saltworks in the Netherlands is located near the Watersnoodmuseum. Combine a visit to Zeeuwsche Zoute saltworks with a trip to the museum and discover how we harvest salt directly from the Eastern Scheldt!
