Warkums Erfskip: Workum seen from the Waag
Museum Warkums Erfskip tells the story of Workum and the surrounding area. The visit is linked to the Waag (weigh house) and the former town hall on the square.
A town in a wide variety of objects
The collection description mentions tiles, earthenware, paintings, textiles and ship models, among other things. This variety makes it possible to look at the town from different interests: living, working, sailing or the appearance of objects.
Scale models and stories
The museum information describes scale models, stories and multimedia. A model can help you understand spatial relationships, while a story draws attention to people and events. See how the presentation links these forms together.
Two buildings on the square
The Waag and It Stedhûs are separate parts of the visit. Ask which presentations are open in both buildings on the day of your visit. That way you can plan your route across the square accordingly.
Before you go
The museum has a seasonal schedule and warns that staffing sometimes leads to unexpected closures.
