Museumboerderij De Nabershof in Emmen describes the exhibition Boeren op de Hondsrug. Tools, visual material and digital explanations link farm work with villages and landscape.

Plan your visit ↗

A landscape with themes

The display covers topics including villages with higher-lying arable fields (esdorpen), farmers’ associations that jointly used the common land (boermarken) and land consolidation. Use the explanations to connect unfamiliar terms with the images you can see, without needing to know any agricultural history beforehand.

Work through the year

A seasonal calendar and old implements are mentioned. They let you look at tasks in context: which moment and which task does an object draw attention to?

The farmhouse as well

The farmhouse also presents residents’ stories and local stories. This offers a small-scale complement to the larger landscape theme. Ask which parts are open on the day of your visit.

Before you go

Check the season and any limited opening. Not all published listings give the same season boundaries.
