A pumping station as a framework
The building turns water management into a tangible setting for the regional story. See how the presentation links the pumping station with the polder, and which parts are explained during your visit.
Not every event is a museum opening
The pump hall is also used for music. The museum may be closed during concerts; an activity on the calendar does not therefore automatically mean access to the exhibition.
A group with a guide
Guided tours are offered by appointment on various days. This lets you set aside time specifically for explanation, but the option must be confirmed in advance by the organisation.
Before you go
Discuss group visits and accessibility in advance. Wheelchair access and an adapted toilet are mentioned, while mobility scooters are not allowed in the exhibition and café.
