The shop changes over time
Compare counter, packaging and presentation between two shop periods. Ask which furnishings are authentic and which have been assembled from separate collection items.
The machine follows the dough
Look at mixing, shaping and baking as a process. A demonstration makes actions visible, but follow only what the guide actually shows.
A private collection in a farmstead
The collection of Sjra and Annie Derks shapes the story. Ask about the origin of a chosen machine or shop object.
Before you go
No fixed opening hours and no individual visits. Only groups of about ten to forty people can make an appointment in advance. Confirm the guided tour, any baking demonstration, duration, price and accessibility directly; do not travel to Ophoven 46B without a booking confirmation.
