Living and working
The farm collection described includes farm tools, machines, stables and living quarters. This combination lets you look at the museum through its layout: where does the household get attention, and where the work? As you go, read which period the display sets out to portray.
What the beach yields
In the Juttersschuur and outdoors, the museum mentions beach finds, messages in bottles, a replica wreck and a beachcomber’s hut. Where a find came from is an interesting part of the explanation here. An object tells you more when it is clear how it ended up in the collection.
The path of wool
The museum also describes machines for processing wool from Ameland sheep. Ask which stages of the process are shown and whether there is a demonstration. The presence of machines does not mean that they are constantly running.
Before you go
The schedule varies greatly through the year. Only the entrance and the ground floor of the main building are described as wheelchair-friendly.
