Landbouwmuseum Tiengemeten: machines and crops on the island

The Landbouwmuseum on Tiengemeten links farm machinery with the crops people worked for. The ferry crossing immediately turns the visit into an outing that you plan as a whole.

Plan your visit ↗

Potatoes, beet and grain

The stories of potatoes, sugar beet and grain give the machines context. First look at what task an implement performs, then compare other machines. That way the technology stays connected to work on the land.

Getting hands-on

There is a children’s play corner and a tractor simulator. These offer a different way of engaging with the subject. Alternate looking at the collection with these features, to suit the interests of your group.

The ferry is part of the planning

You reach Tiengemeten by ferry from Nieuwendijk. Check the outward and return crossings together with the museum hours. The museum has a season from April to November and may close when heat code orange or red is in force. A combined visit with the Rien Poortvliet Museum is possible.

Before you go

Check the ferry, the seasonal opening and any closure due to heat before you set off.
