Twintighoeven connects island, people and Biesbosch

In a former cold store in the De Elzen forest area, Museum Twintighoeven tells the story of nature and culture on the Island of Dordrecht (Eiland van Dordrecht).

Plan your visit ↗

Landscape after the water

Ask which maps, finds or stories the display uses to explain changes in the landscape. With each object or image shown, check which period it represents.

The Biesbosch close by

The location in De Elzen makes it possible to compare with what lies outside. Note which plants, waterways or traces of use are explained indoors.

Volunteers and changing art

Alongside regional history there are exhibitions by artists and a book corner about the Biesbosch. Ask which part is permanent and which is temporary.

Before you go

Open Wednesday 10.00–16.00 and Saturday and Sunday 12.30–16.00; closed on other days or possibly by appointment. Admission is free. Before you set off, check whether the weekend opening and the temporary exhibition you want to see are going ahead, and ask about accessibility if necessary.
