Statenpoort: Hoorn on screen and on foot

Ontdek het verhaal van Hoorn in the Statenpoort combines a short multimedia show with walking routes. The offer is linked to the Westfries Museum while its main location is closed.

Plan your visit ↗

A story on the walls

The show projects a history of the town in the monumental space. See image and sound as a chosen way of telling the story, and use the explanations to place individual subjects.

Then into the town

Podwalks focus on the town or the harbour. They extend the visit beyond the Statenpoort and vary in length; choose what suits the time you have and your walking ability.

Without a podwalk too

A paper booklet is mentioned as an alternative. It lets you follow a route at your own pace, without having to use the digital format as the only option.

Before you go

Check current access to the show and any booking for a guided walk. Discuss the step at the entrance if you need wheelchair access.
