A textile town in objects
Patterns, clothing, tools and company archives from firms including Ten Cate and Bendien make industry tangible. Choose one pattern and ask how design, production and sales followed on from one another.
Theme rooms for the town
Water, power, rural life, industry and leisure form different rooms. Do not walk through them as one straight timeline; each room organises the town around a different subject.
One museum, two profiles
Number 0305 describes the same collection under its current name. Nor is a planned move to the Hofkeshuis a new visitor address yet; Prinsenstraat 13 remains the one to use.
Before you go
This is a duplicate identity, not a second museum. Plans to move have not been finalised and may not be published as the current location.
