One theme, different times
Choose, for example, work or celebration and compare objects from different periods. Notice what changes in material and use, and which human need remains recognisable.
Treasury and everyday life
Silver and religious objects can look precious, while everyday items bring a sense of closeness. Ask how function, owner and reason for keeping determined their place in the museum.
Art on the façade
Video art outside links the museum and the street. See whether the work responds to the building, passers-by or current events, and check which explanation goes with the current screening.
Before you go
Open Tuesday to Sunday 11.00–17.00; closed Monday. During the Weerter Kermis from 26 to 30 September 2026 the museum is closed; public holidays also differ.
