Accordeonmuseum Harte Meijer: instruments by appointment

The Accordeonmuseum Harte Meijer in Gasselternijveenschemond is described as a private collection at a private house. Direct contact is necessary for a visit.

Construction as the subject

The collection description focuses on a wide variety of accordions. Appearance, operation and size offer starting points for understanding the differences, even if you do not play an instrument yourself.

Small and unusual

A combined music box and cigarette box is mentioned as a striking object. Harmonicas and sheet music are also part of the description.

A guided introduction

Agree on what explanation is possible and how many visitors can come. A private collection does not offer open access as a matter of course; a guided tour has to fit within what the owner can manage.

When you make your request, mention whether you mainly want to look at the mechanics, the sound or the design.

Before you go

By appointment only, by phone or e-mail. The museum’s old domain leads to unrelated content; do not use it as visitor information.
