<\/span><\/div>

Flipje is perhaps the most famous resident of Tiel. Originating in 1935 as an advertising medium and character for the Jam Factory De Betuwe from Tiel, Flipje quickly took on a life of its own. With books, keychains, cartoons, and much more, the museum boasts a fine collection.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Jam Factory De Betuwe<\/h4><\/h1><\/div>

Established in 1885 in Tiel, the company ‘De Betuwe<\/strong>‘, better known for Flipje and jam, initially operated as a vinegar factory under the name ‘De Haas’. It wasn’t until 1887 that the name ‘De Betuwe’ appeared. It became: ‘Nederlandsche Fabriek van Verduurzaamde Vruchten Maatschappij de Betuwe Tiel<\/em>‘.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
