Huize Keizer: shop, living rooms and smokehouse around 1920

On the Kerkplein, Huize Keizer preserves a combined shop and house with colonial goods, cured meats, living quarters and a smokehouse.

Plan your visit ↗

The shop counter

Look at the cupboards, packaging and work space, and ask how shopkeeper and customer moved around. Digital screens can add details that remain behind glass or doors.

Living behind the business

The living quarters make it clear that business and family shared one building. Compare the formal front room, everyday space and storage for comfort and accessibility.

Smokehouse and garden

The smokehouse shows food preservation; the Keizerskroon garden is a later outdoor addition. Keep the original parts of the house and museum additions from different years apart.

Before you go

Free admission, with an optional donation. Weather can cause temporary closure; the official hours are Wednesday–Friday and the first and third Sunday. Also check in advance whether the garden is open.
