Museum ’t Stadhuus: Hardenberg in rooms and stories

Museum ’t Stadhuus in Hardenberg combines local history with furnished rooms. A period room and archaeological finds let you look at the past on very different scales.

A room to read

The period room and the display in the cellar focus on daily life. Look at how the objects are arranged together. What activity does that make imaginable, and what information does the explanation still need to add?

Difficult history too

The museum organisation names the Jewish inhabitants and the Molengoot labour camp as subjects. Give that display space alongside looking at household items. People, events and documents call for attention to context and to what an individual object can actually tell you.

A changing subject

Alongside the permanent display, the museum holds a temporary exhibition every year; advertising is mentioned for 2026. That offers a different view of the town: which images and words were meant to persuade people? Check what is on show on the day of your visit.

Before you go

The museum is located at Voorstraat 34; the historical information centre is elsewhere. Information on admission varies, so check the current conditions.
