Leudalmuseum: nature and history side by side

The Leudalmuseum in Bezoekerscentrum Leudal covers the area through four themes: flora and fauna, archaeology, local heritage and history. It is a compact preparation for getting to know the surroundings further.

Plan your visit ↗

A landscape has several stories

Start with one theme and then see how a second subject sheds a different light on the same surroundings. Information on nature gives a different perspective from an archaeological find. Let the museum’s explanations make the connection without merging everything into a single picture of one period.

Local history

The Second World War in the Leudal is also covered. Keep that historical layer separate from the nature subjects, so that each story keeps its own context. A museum guide can help you make a selection from the collection.

A walk to follow

The visitor centre makes it logical to combine your visit with exploring outdoors, but plan extra time for it. Regular museum opening does not begin until twelve noon and ends in the afternoon. Ask about the accessibility of your chosen route if you also want to head outdoors.

Before you go

Check museum hours and any outdoor route separately. The Museumkaart (Dutch museum pass) is not valid.
