Vechtstreekmuseum by country house and tea pavilion

In Goudestein park, the museum tells the story of the residents, buildings, art and landscape along the Vecht, from the former country house Silverstein.

Plan your visit ↗

The Huydecoper family

A separate room links family documents and objects to governance and country-house life. Look at which people are present through original sources and which mainly through later interpretation.

Pavilions along the water

Tea pavilions and country houses define the recognisable river scenery. Use the maps and films inside to find the location and sightline outside in the park.

Two seasonal rhythms

In the summer months the museum opens for longer than in winter. Groups can book outside normal hours, but that does not automatically make an individual visitor welcome.

Before you go

From May–September Wednesday–Sunday 11.00–17.00; from October–April the same days 13.30–16.30, with public-holiday exceptions.
