Paulina Bisdom van Vliet makes a house seem lived in

In Haastrecht, rooms, tableware, furniture and paintings form a house museum that deliberately presents its interior as a coherent household.

Plan your visit ↗

The room as an ensemble

Look at furniture, textiles and everyday objects in relation to one another. Ask what has been preserved since the house was lived in and what has been conserved by the museum.

From everyday to formal

Compare a practical room with a reception room. Materials, light and arrangement show where comfort, work and status meet.

The garden opposite belongs too

The garden lies across from the house and calls for a separate route. Check whether its access and season match those of the museum.

Before you go

From 1 April to 1 November Wednesday–Sunday 11.00–17.00; from 1 November to 1 April Saturday and Sunday only 11.00–17.00. Closed from 24 December to 1 February and on King’s Day. Booking a time slot is recommended.
