Appie Baantjer Museum: a presentation by appointment

The Appie Baantjer Museum is described as a presentation in Café Heffer on the Warmoesstraat. Access is by appointment and through excursions, not through a confirmed regular museum schedule.

Plan your visit ↗

Close to the writer

Private photographs, manuscripts and personal belongings are mentioned in the description of the collection. They offer different ways into Baantjer’s work; ask which items are explained during a booked visit.

De Cock in translation

Russian and Chinese editions sit alongside police detective memorabilia and paintings in the collection as described. This combination brings both the writing and the setting of the stories into view.

Choosing an excursion separately

Tours of the Wallen (red-light district) and games are offered as linked activities. Discuss in advance which programme you are booking and how much of it actually takes place in the museum space.

Before you go

Confirm individual visits in advance too. The café’s opening hours and older references to Mondays are no guarantee of access to the Baantjer presentation.
