Getting to know a town better
Start with a place or subject you recognise and see what background the presentation adds. For visitors from elsewhere, an unfamiliar part can be a good starting point. The town’s history ties the different parts together.
Interaction with attention
An interactive exhibition invites you to try things out, but also take time for the information around it. Discuss with your group what a particular part shows about Den Helder. That way it is not just about an action or a screen.
Practical information on Borneolaan
