Rick Steves' Europe

Haarlem, Netherlands: Herring and Heritage

Clip: Season 8 Episode 810 | 4m 39sVideo has Closed Captions

Cute and cozy Haarlem is a good place to start a European trip.

Haarlem is a “Dutch Masters” kind of town, with plenty of 17th-century architecture. Dodge bikes down narrow lanes to discover some of Haarlem’s gems — pickled herring, masterpieces by Dutch Masters, and, at 100 feet high, Holland’s greatest pipe organ.
