Nightowls and White mineworkers

The exposition 'Nightowls and White mineworkers' tells the story of the bakers who have been working for centuries while the rest of the world sleeps. It is a story of craftsmanship, night work, health, and social struggle.
 

The Boekentoren is lending out Boulangers. La misère des garçons boulangers from 1715. This item is part of the Vliegende Bladen, a unique collection of ephemeral documents that are highly diverse in both content and form.
