Museum Giethoorn 't Olde Maat Uus

Start your visit to Giethoorn in Museum Giethoorn 't Olde Maat Uus! The museum is located in an original historical farmhouse. It is the only place in Giethoorn where you can see how people lived more than 100 years ago and how they earned a meagre living by cutting peat and building small boats (‘punters’).

Reviewed By RP-Netherlands - Wemeldinge, The Netherlands

Nice small museum which gives you all the information about the past of the area. Amazing to know that the landscape as it is today was man-made. All the canals were dug out by workers who cut turf which was used as fuel for fire, for heating and cooking. The museum tells you all about how it came about, how the people used to live and what life was like hundreds of years ago. Very educational and interesting. Nice for the whole family. A visit will take you 1-2 hours.

Bonami Games & Computers Museum

History of Games en Computers, Arcade and Pinball all to see and to Play. All-in concept entrance, for museum, acrade, exehibition and events. 3000 m2, parking is free.

Reviewed By jader692 - Hilversum, The Netherlands

Wow, they have some cool stuff here! Many old computers and of course game consoles, more than we expected. In most cases you can play on the consoles, from old Atari's to the current gen. All that's missing here is some more explanation or history: info is sparse and often illegibly written by hand on post its. A pity, because it's clear that the staff loves the place and that they have some unique items on display: a more professional exhibit would do that justice. There is also a nice arcade hall where you can spend a few fun hours.

Rijksmuseum Twenthe

Reviewed By john592 - London, United Kingdom

Regardless of the temporary special exhibitions (which were memorable), this museum was well worth a visit for the permanent collection of paintings which includes real gems from the Middle Ages onwards – collected mainly by local industrialists back in the day. An impressive silverware room. Likewise the porcelain room. Plus there is a delightful courtyard for a coffee. Unlike so many museums, this museum is on a human scale too.

Museum de Fundatie

Reviewed By Hermes_NL - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

The flamboyant museum director Ralph Keuning came up with the brilliant idea to combine the two sculptors Chadwick and Giacometti into one large exhibition, featuring over 150 works (that is including lots of drawings). These two artists really complement each other and although Giacometti is better known to the general public, Chadwick is perhaps the more disruptive and original sculptor of the two. The exhibition is still combined with another special, Goldbrun by Yuri Honing and Mariecke van der Linden. Also top pieces of the regular collection such as Turners "Clouds and Water" and Jan Cremer's "Guerre Japonnaise" are on display. The museum itself is also delightful and almost somewhat self-indulgent with its shameless dome on top of the classical building. Parking is easy in the Maagjesbolwerk garage just a few hundred meters from the museum.

Sassenpoort

The Sassenpoort (English: Sassen gate) is a gatehouse in the citywall of Zwolle, Netherlands. It was built in 1409 out of dimension stone, mostly trachyte and tuff, and restoration work was done in 1893-1898. The gatehouse is a 'rijksmonument' and is part of the Top 100 Dutch heritage sites.[1]
