Het Belfort: Sluis, language and a tower

Museum Het Belfort in Sluis combines town history with language and a visit to the tower. Its different floors give the visit a structure of its own, from local subjects to the presentation on J.H. van Dale.

Playing with language

The Van Dale floor deals with language and dialects. The letter cave and other interactive features give children a way in; read the commentary to follow the link with Sluis too.

Looking at the town

The history of Sluis has a presentation of its own. See how the subjects are spread over the floors, so that a climb up the tower does not take up all the time you have.

Up and down

The tower involves climbing a spiral staircase. The council cellar may once again host a temporary exhibition, for which you need to check current availability.

Before you go

Wheelchair access to parts of the museum does not mean access to the tower.
