Plan your visit ↗

Island history in objects

Choose an object with a known place and date and connect it to landscape, occupation or household. Do not fill in missing provenance yourself.

Ot en Sien as a learning route

At the Ot en Sien experience, ask which parts give historical information and which are intended to guide play and imagination.

Archaeologist for a day

An activity can explain find, context and interpretation. Notice how soil layer, material and dating together support a conclusion.

Before you go

Open Tuesday–Saturday 13.30–16.30; closed on Sunday and Monday. Groups can visit outside these hours by appointment. Address sources differ between Kerkstraat 4–12 and 2–12; confirm the entrance and public holiday opening in advance.
