About

Situated in one of the two remaining wooden framed houses and oldest wooden houses (16th Century), Int Aepjen means 'In The Monkey's'. Old folk's tale has it that this lively bar used to be frequented by sailor's. On being unable to pay the tab, the sailors used to pay in kind by handing over monkey's from the Dutch East Indies. However, nowadays monkeys are not acceptable as a form of legal tender here, although you would still find images of them in the tap room.
