A swimming pool to scale
A scale model of the Schuwacht swimming pool makes a vanished or changed setting imaginable. Look at how such a model sums up a place and read the information that goes with it. It offers a very different view from an isolated memory or a written description.
People and societies
The giant of Lekkerkerk and a banner of a choral society offer other ways into the local past. There are also changing display cases. So it is worth asking what is newly on show since a previous visit.
A short afternoon route
The local history room is usually open on the second Saturday of the month, for two afternoon hours. A visit by appointment is also possible. Keep this location on the Poolmanweg separate from other museum addresses in Lekkerkerk, which have different visiting times.
Before you go
Check the next open afternoon. Free admission does not mean the local history room is open every day.
