Plan your visit ↗

Looking at a pram

Notice the relationship between wheels, body and handle. Such parts determine how a pram is used; any explanation available can clarify the differences between examples.

Familiar and different

A familiar shape may differ in its details from what you expect. Look at materials and finish without deciding an age or history of use on appearance alone.

Confirm your visit first

The Friday and Saturday afternoons listed come from a museum guide. Contact the museum in advance to check whether the collection on the Sint Jacobsstraat can actually be visited.

Before you go

Have the opening times, address and accessibility confirmed directly. Hours from secondary guides and a mention of visits by appointment are no guarantee that the museum is currently open.
