Shields of the Council of Eleven
Look at the names, years and symbols on the shields. They show how an annual committee presents itself and how tradition is carried on by successive groups.
Costume as role
A costume reveals rank, character or occasion. Compare material and decoration, and ask at what moment of the vastelaovend it was worn.
Sights and sounds of the festivities
Photos and films show the movement and crowds that a display case lacks. Notice who appears in the picture, which place is recognisable and which year is documented.
Before you go
From September open every last Sunday of the month; a current time is not confirmed. Visits are also possible all year round by appointment. Get in touch in advance and check accessibility.
