Jan Visser Museum: farm work and household goods

The Jan Visser Museum in Helmond combines farming, crafts and household goods with a separate fire brigade display. The building and the grounds offer different ways of looking at daily work as a subject.

Plan your visit ↗

Imagining tools in use

With farm machinery and hand tools, it helps to understand the task involved. Read what explanation is given about manual labour and horse power before focusing only on the size of an object.

Within the household

Textiles and household goods are on a different scale from the large farm equipment. Compare how the display places work inside and outside the home side by side.

To the fire brigade section

The fire brigade exhibition is in a separate single-level building. Check which parts of the grounds and buildings are open if you want to plan your visit with a limited route.

Before you go

The regular timetable applies from April to October; outside the season, guided tours are available on request. There is a stairlift, but discuss the usable route in advance.
