Rooms from different regions
A Drenthe room, a small Groningen grocer’s shop and a Gelderland interior stand side by side. Compare box bed, heat source and storage, and avoid giving the impression that the whole of the Netherlands lived the same way.
Cheese dairy and hairdresser’s
A South Holland cheese dairy from around 1800 and a men’s hairdresser’s bring trades into view. Look at tools and working height to see how the space is arranged for the tasks.
A collection in a working setting
Because objects are part of a restaurant setting, the museum route is not clearly defined. Ask the staff what can be viewed freely and what explanation is available.
Before you go
There are no separately confirmed museum hours or ticket conditions. Restaurant hours have been used; call ahead if you are coming specifically for the collection.
