A building for the dike
First look at why the storehouse stands on this road and flood defence. Its original function makes the management of the Lekdijk tangible before you turn to the display cases.
Finds from several periods
Roman chest handles and material from the castle moat lie far apart in time. Keep find context and dating separate for each drawer so as not to force a continuous story.
The castle as a scale model
The reconstruction makes size, moats and buildings spatially legible. Ask which maps, excavations or images the maker based it on and where uncertainty remained.
