Start with the passenger
The museum describes vehicles for different groups of users. Compare the seating, shelter and way in of what is on display. Which choices strike you once you consider that someone had to travel in it?
Don’t forget the whole
The collection also includes accessories. Ask how a separate part relates to a carriage or sleigh. Incidentally, the size of the collection does not mean that every vehicle is on view during your visit; if you are interested in a specific one, enquire in advance.
A site with several parts
Besides the carriages, Nienoord also mentions the manor house (borg), the coach house, the stable and a shell grotto. Check which parts are accessible on the day of your visit. You can take in the buildings as a second thread alongside transport.
Before you go
The summer and winter schedules differ. Ask separately about access to the storage depot and the shell grotto if they are your reason for visiting.
