Hunebedcentrum: from a stone to a landscape

At the Hunebedcentrum in Borger, you can combine your museum visit with hunebed D27 (a megalithic tomb) and various outdoor features. The subject is prehistory and the landscape in which it is studied.

Explaining prehistory

The museum exhibition and the display on ice ages and prehistory give context to what you see outside. Start with a question that makes you curious: the material, the landscape or people’s lives.

Reconstructions in the Oertijdpark

The Oertijdpark (prehistoric park) described contains reconstructions, including a Stone Age house. A building like this is a means of explanation. Look at which choices are explained and what, according to the museum, the depiction is based on.

Boulders and the hunebed

The Keientuin (boulder garden) and hunebed D27 are other parts of the visitor route described. They let you shift your attention from a display to the stones themselves. Keep the museum’s explanations to hand so that you can recognise features.

Before you go

Use Hunebedstraat 27 as the visiting address. The museum lists a different winter schedule and Monday opening during certain holidays and public holidays.
