From find to house

The museum describes a reconstruction of a byre-house from the excavations in Ezinge. See how the space is explained. Which parts can you place straight away, and where do you need the explanation?

A remarkable find

The collection page mentions a double horse grave with a dog from De Bouwerd. With a find like this, read above all what the display explains about its context. What do we know thanks to the find, and which question remains open for you?

Place the parts in time

The timeline in the museum helps you set different finds and periods side by side. Choose two objects that are far apart in time. What would you like to compare: material, use or the place where they were found?

Before you go

The museum has different summer and winter hours. Check the public holiday arrangements too.
