Welcome, fellow adventurers, to the Enkhuizen City Tour! Get ready to explore a town that once ruled the Zuiderzee. In the 17th century, half of the Dutch herring fleet sailed out of this compact harbor, and Enkhuizen became one of the six chambers of the mighty VOC (Dutch East India Company), sending ships to the far side of the world and bringing home fortunes in spices, silk and silver. Today the Zuiderzee itself is gone, closed off by the Afsluitdijk in 1932 and tamed into the freshwater IJsselmeer, but Enkhuizen's Golden Age streets, its fortress tower guarding the harbor mouth, and the open-air Zuiderzeemuseum still tell the story of the fishermen, skippers and merchants who built this town. Follow the route, answer the quiz at every stop, collect your letters, and by the end you'll be able to crack the secret word that sums up Enkhuizen's fortune. Let's set sail!
