The "Spuihuisje" in #Enkhuizen (Noord-Holland), is a 17th-century building situated atop a sluice connecting the Zuider Havendijk to the IJsselmeer. Originally used to operate the sluice, its façade features the coats of arms of Hoorn, Prince Maurice of Orange, West Friesland, Enkhuizen, and Medemblik. In 1992, it became home to the "Flessenscheepjesmuseum", which claims to house the world's largest collection of over 1,000 bottled ships from around the globe, including themed displays on fishing, whaling, and rescue services.
