Tuberculosemuseum Beatrixoord: a former museum site

According to Friesland.nl, Tuberculosemuseum Beatrixoord in Appelscha has been closed since 2017. The former X-ray building remains connected with the history of the sanatorium, but offers no confirmed museum opening.

The former display

The surviving museum description mentions an exhibition on the fight against tuberculosis in the northern Netherlands. Video material featuring former patients and staff was also described in it. That tells you what the museum covered; it does not mean that the display is still open to visitors.

A building and its function

The tourist description identifies the site as the X-ray house and laboratory building on the Beatrixoord grounds. Questions about patients’ daily lives and the organisation of care belong with this subject. This page gives no medical information or treatment advice.

No current visitor route

Older listings with opening times can continue to circulate after a museum has closed. No reopening is known for Beatrixoord. Nor is the continued existence of the building or the foundation any indication that the exhibition can be visited again.

Before you go

Closed according to the available tourist information. An old listing for Saturday or Friday is not a valid museum schedule.
