City on the Zaan Beacon AppStampions has won an award from the province of North Holland - HollandCall - and is part of Stad aan de Zaan. The concept is as strong as it is simple:

  • Collect as many different digital stamp plates as possible at museums, monuments and restaurants along the Zaan.
  • Use the instructions in this app to find the striking yellow-red-blue stamps and put a unique free souvenir on your iPhone on the spot!
  • The game ends on November 1, 2015. The person with the most digital stamp prints will receive a package of Zaanse regional products as a reward.
