Museum BroekerVeiling

Museum BroekerVeiling is not just a museum. In Broek op Langedijk you can find the oldest sail-through auction in the world. This is where the Dutch auction (also called a clock auction or open-outcry descending-price auction) originated in 1887. 
Note: this type of auctioning is used at all large auction houses to this day. Immerse yourself in history and experience how the vegetable auction was run at the BroekerVeiling over a century ago. Visit the nicest museum in the Netherlands!
