Museum Hoeksche Waard tells the story from lord to labourer

Two monumental sites in Heinenoord together show life in the Hoeksche Waard, from a gentleman’s farm and period rooms to work and everyday use.

Plan your visit ↗

Oost-Leeuwenstein as a farm

View the living and working quarters as a single whole. Pay attention to materials and routes, and ask which presentation belongs specifically to this gentleman’s farm.

The Hof shows a different status

The period rooms of ’t Hof van Assendelft set a different emphasis. Compare the furnishings, space and choice of objects with the farm.

Planning for two addresses

The buildings are on Dorpsstraat and Hofweg. Allow enough time for both and check where the entrance, activity or documentation centre begins.

Before you go

Open Wednesday–Friday 13.00–17.00, Saturday 10.00–17.00 and Sunday 13.00–17.00. The documentation centre has different hours. Oost-Leeuwenstein is wheelchair accessible; ’t Hof partly, with a stairlift. Check public holidays and the starting address in advance.
