There are so many historic sites in Holland and today we visited a few of them. Our first stop was the 1880s old Fire Station/City Hall, the oldest public building still standing in Holland.
On February 9, 1847, Rev. Albertus C. Van Raalte, with a group of Dutch people, founded the City of Holland.
The old post office is now the Holland Museum.
The second home is that of Holland's first mayor, Isaac Cappon.
Tulip time was gearing up on one of our visits.
The "Dutchman," one of many Padnos sculptures around town, greets those heading toward Windmill Island.
We've previously toured De Zwaan,
and today we just took a long distance look (it was built in the 1700s in the Netherlands and brought to Holland, Michigan, in the 1960s).
No visit to Holland would be complete without seeing "Big Red."
Until next time, Holland.
