Plan your visit ↗

Small things, focused stories

A silhouette portrait of J.W. Racer and a travel chair belonging to Gulia Palthe are mentioned as examples from the collection. Ask about their context when they are on view in the current presentation.

An unexpected combination

A wooden aircraft wheel and the painting De Preekstoel by A.W.P. Palthe also appear in the collection description. Such varied objects make you curious about the connections the museum draws itself.

Different ways to visit

Alongside museum visits, town walks and an escape-room option are mentioned. These are separate activities for which availability and booking may differ from ordinary access to the galleries.

Before you go

Do not assume every listed collection item is on view. Book extra activities separately, and ask about the most suitable route for your group.
