Museum Het Leids Wevershuis, Historical weaving museum in Leiden, Netherlands
The museum occupies a preserved house from 1560, featuring a large antique loom from 1830 and exhibits about textile manufacturing in Leiden.
During the 16th and 17th centuries, home weavers in this area produced high-quality woolen cloth for the local draper's guild.
Museum guides demonstrate traditional weaving techniques on the historic loom, creating textiles that reflect centuries-old manufacturing methods.
The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 13:00 to 16:00, with admission free of charge at Middelstegracht 143.
The interior remains largely unchanged since 1900, including an original cellar with elements dating to the 17th century.
