Hof van Hessen reads Huissen in four layers of time

The Stadsmuseum of the Historische Kring Huessen arranges local history from the Roman border region to war, destruction and return.

Plan your visit ↗

Huissen on the Limes

The presentation on the Limes places Huissen within a Roman border region. Ask how the museum distinguishes between the history of the surrounding area and that of the town itself.

A town under Cleves rule

The presentation on the Cleves period shows that administrative borders changed. Look for maps, seals or documents that make such a political relationship tangible.

Destruction and return

The war section connects damage with the resettling and rebuilding of Huissen. Exhibitions change on the upper floor, so a second visit may bring up a different local subject.

Before you go

The museum is closed on Monday and open on all other days only from 13:00 to 16:30.
