A front house with several rooms
Compare the kitchen-living room, the raised room (opkamer) and the library in terms of function and finish. Ask which furnishings come from the building and which were added later.
Crafts in the outbuildings
In the smithy and the hoop-making workshop (hoepelmakerij), tools take centre stage. Follow the material, the action and the end product, and look for signs of actual use.
The garden extends the story
The museum garden and tea garden link the farmyard, crops and relaxation. Check which parts are seasonal or have limited access in bad weather.
