Museum Sophiahof: heritage and remembrance together

Museum Sophiahof on Sophialaan brings together Indisch and Moluccan heritage. Several organisations are connected with this place. The exhibition ONS LAND offers a way into stories about the past and their meaning in the present.

Who tells the story

Personal memories make it clear that people can approach the same subject differently. Follow the voices presented and read the context the museum provides, without taking any one experience as self-evident for everyone.

Organisations side by side

The Indisch Herinneringscentrum, Museum Maluku and Pelita, among others, are connected with Sophiahof. Their presence makes the building a shared place, but their services and accessibility may differ from one another.

After the exhibition

A visit may raise new questions about family, history or remembrance. Note down which question you want to look into and ask which organisation is the right point of contact for it.

Before you go

Museum hours do not automatically apply to the knowledge centre or to office appointments. Check the programme and any booking requirements; if you have specific mobility needs, ask about the route via the lift.
