In the Voorhuis you can see what this farmhouse looked like from 1850. Experience how the 'herenboer' in this region lived with his family, girls and helpers. From 1945 to 1962 an office of the Boerenleenbank was located in the 'goeie kamer'. The museum collection is located in the 'De deel' and the attic. The collection gives a representative picture of agricultural machinery and tools that were in use at the beginning of the last century in our country and especially in this region. By means of photos and video, old working methods can be viewed. Outside the 'brink' there are beautiful buildings: a cart shed, carpentry workshop, carnival house, blacksmith's shop and bakery.

The museum welcomes you to a bygone world, which is not that long ago. In the living room café you can enjoy a cup of coffee with fresh apple pie or a delicious lunch.
