Museum Hert fan Fryslân: waiting for a new place to visit

According to its own information, Museum Hert fan Fryslân in Grou has been temporarily closed since September 2026 because it is moving. Regular visits to the museum have therefore been interrupted.

Grou as the main subject

The museum describes its collection in terms of living, working and leisure in Grou. That gives a broad collection a local angle. Earlier exhibitions covered subjects such as Grou in wartime and the search for lapwing eggs; these are examples from the programme, not a current exhibition calendar.

A view of the village

The organisation mentions an etching with a view of Grou by Andries van der Sloot. A town or village view like this can be a concrete way into the collection. During the move, it has not been confirmed where the work can be seen.

Telling the information point and the museum apart

The website also lists opening times for Informatie Punt Grou. These do not apply to the closed museum. For a museum outing, wait for an announcement with the new visiting address and reopening date, so that you do not go by the old location.

Before you go

Temporarily closed because of the move. The information point being open does not mean that the museum collection is accessible.
