Time as the main structure
A timeline quickly shows sequence, but can flatten simultaneous developments. Choose one period and see which local sources are shown alongside the dates.
Photos as evidence of place
Old images gain more meaning when a street or building is recognisable. Compare one photo with the current surroundings and note what remains outside the frame.
A museum within a cultural centre
The exhibition follows De Binder's generous opening hours. Activities, holidays or public holidays can still affect access to the entrance hall.
Before you go
Free visits during De Binder's hours; check for changes around holidays and public holidays.
