Toon Kortooms Park: writer, museum and outdoor activities

Toon Kortooms Park on the Griendtsveenseweg in Deurne combines a writer’s museum with outdoor activities. The museum focuses on Toon Kortooms and his work; the park also offers a barefoot path, among other things.

Plan your visit ↗

The writer at work

The museum presentation mentions manuscripts, writing materials and a restored study. These elements put the emphasis on the making of texts. Read the explanations with the material to understand how the museum links the objects to the writer.

A book as a way in

‘Beekman & Beekman’ is one of the subjects in the description of the museum. You do not need to have read the book to start on the presentation. Ask for the explanation of this section or enquire about a guide if you want more background with a group.

Park and activities separately

General park admission and paid activities have different conditions. So check what applies to your planned visit, especially if you are combining the museum and the barefoot path. Normal opening is from Wednesday to Sunday. Pets are not allowed in the museum.

Before you go

Check the separate activities and book a guide for a group.
