De Oersprong: natural history behind a temporary closure

Museum De Oersprong in Waardenburg is housed in a former dyke warehouse. The museum reports a temporary closure because of works on the dyke; a reopening date is missing.

A collection about nature

Fossils, minerals and other natural-history objects form the museum’s subject. They offer different ways of looking at the earth and its past. Which parts will be on view after reopening has not been established.

A building on the dyke

Its location on the Waalbandijk makes the former dyke warehouse a recognisable place. It is precisely that setting that now matters for accessibility and opening. The announced raising of the dyke is a reason not to follow old visitor information.

Wait for current confirmation

The closure notice uses the words ‘this year’ without a clear year. As a result, it is not certain how long the arrangement applies. An old Sunday schedule does not resolve that uncertainty; have it confirmed directly first whether a visit is possible again.

Before you go

Do not assume the old Sunday hours. The temporary closure and reopening must first be confirmed.
