Starting on Thursday 3 July, ten consecutive Thursdays in Schagen will be dedicated to West Frisian Folklore.
Every Thursday at 10.45 am, the colorful procession of Schagen residents and guests dressed in original West Frisian costumes, walking or sitting on or in farm carts, sjeezen and landaus, which are pulled by beautiful horses, departs through the center of Schagen.
