Historiehuis reads Roermond from archaeological find to city

A free city museum in Bibliorura arranges objects and stories from prehistory to the present day, with temporary exhibitions in the basement.

Plan your visit ↗

A timeline gives a foothold

Choose one period and follow object, map and text. An overview room helps you make connections, but also reveals gaps and choices in the collection.

The city gets other stories

The permanent display emphasises that Roermond does not have a single history. Ask which residents, neighbourhoods and sources speak in a chosen section.

The temporary exhibition room goes deeper

A temporary exhibition may explore the House of Orange or another theme. Check the dates and compare new interpretations with the permanent timeline.
