Museum Ceuclum: regional history in the tower

Museum Ceuclum in Cuijk presents regional history in a church tower at Castellum 1. Archaeological finds, pictures and explanations make up what is on offer; a climb for the panoramic view is also mentioned.

Finds with explanations

The permanent display emphasises prehistory and the Roman period. Panels, photos and drawings help to put the archaeological pieces in context. Look at the combination in particular: an object shows material and form, while the explanation makes clear which story the museum tells with it.

A building to take into account

The tower is part of the visit and offers views of the Meuse and the landscape. At the same time, its layout brings accessibility restrictions. Ask in advance which parts can be reached if stairs are difficult, so you know what the visit can include for you.

A seasonal schedule of its own

The museum tower has different hours from the Archeologisch Centrum on the Maasstraat. In winter, fewer days are available as well. At temperatures of 35 degrees or more, the heat protocol means closure; public holidays may also differ. Take these exceptions into account for a combined visit.

Look at the explanations of the finds before you start any climb.
