De Grote Glind: a museum farm with a closure notice

The museum farm De Grote Glind in Barneveld collected objects relating to work and everyday life. A closure notice from February 2026 makes the old visitor information uncertain.

The character of the collection

Earlier descriptions mention tools, everyday objects, bicycles, mopeds and tractors. This put the emphasis on recognisable materials and machines. The farmhouse and the barns formed the backdrop for a broad collection about rural life.

No current visiting offer

The Barneveldse Krant reported that the museum had closed its doors and that items were being auctioned. That report clashes with tourist pages that still list seasonal hours. Those older hours are therefore not a reliable invitation to visit.

What you need to know beforehand

A current confirmation of reopening is not available. The former website also offers no clear museum programme. Anyone wanting to travel for the collection must first establish directly whether there is still a museum to visit, and where.

Before you go

Do not rely on the old summer hours; there is a closure notice and no current reopening confirmed.
