Getting to know Etty Hillesum
The permanent presentation uses her life and writings as a way in. Read short passages in context, and distinguish between her own words, later interpretation and general wartime history.
Jewish Deventer
The building itself carries history. Look at how the building, the story of the city and persecution meet, without assuming that every room is still furnished as it originally was.
From remembrance to conversation
Education, talks and programmes on discrimination focus on the present. Groups can arrange films, guides and city walks; these are not a standard part of a weekend visit.
Before you go
Regular opening only on Saturday and Sunday. The hall and entrance are wheelchair accessible, but the toilets are not; groups of eight or more by appointment.
