Openluchtmuseum Ootmarsum: a farmstead with different functions

The Openluchtmuseum Ootmarsum brings together Twente buildings and farming. The offer links farming life to local authority relationships, with the buildings as a way in to those subjects.

Plan your visit ↗

More than a farmhouse

A Los Hoes farmhouse, the Bakspieker bakehouse, the Klopkeshoes cottage, a smithy and a sheepfold are mentioned. Their different functions make the tour interesting: ask how the buildings relate to the work on a farmstead.

Work and authority

Alongside farm machinery, the museum mentions a display on the hofmeier and the Teutonic Order. This gives the visit an administrative angle too, for which the on-site explanation matters.

An outdoor route

Buildings and outdoor space together form the visitor route. Factor in the weather when planning, and ask which parts are best accessible for your group.

Before you go

Check the seasonal calendar. A combined offer does not mean both museums are accessible during the same hours.
