Het Sterkenhuis: Bergen through clothing, household goods and stories
Museum Het Sterkenhuis in Bergen is housed in a historic longhouse farm. The museum covers farming life and village history with objects that are close to everyday use.
A domestic collection
Furniture, household items, silver and porcelain offer different ways into the interior. Look not only at the striking pieces, but also at ordinary everyday objects. Ask how they are connected with Bergen or the people of the area.
Clothing and village stories
Traditional dress and topics from local history broaden the display. An annual exhibition may give particular people or themes extra attention.
A seasonal museum
Het Sterkenhuis is part of what Kranenburgh offers, but has its own address and season. In 2026 regular opening ran up to and including 25 October. Occasional closures due to the weather can also occur.
