October 14, 2021 Dorsey Hagwood

Eindhoven is one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, but you’d never know it from the high-tech industry and cutting-edge design it’s currently known for. If you have kids obsessed by all things wheeled, they will love the trucks at the DAF Museum.

DAF Museum

Reviewed By O7746XIdavide - Limerick, Ireland

For all transport buffs and people who enjoy going back in time to the old days of classic vehicles, this museum is ideal. Also children will like it too as they can climb in some of the vehicles and there is a childrens area. Well worth the money in my opinion.Only sorry the bar was shut on the day I visited.

preHistorisch Dorp

The preHistorisch Dorp in Eindhoven is the replica of a prehistoric village, complete with dwellings and demonstrations of skills used by historic people. The open-air museum recreates life from this and later eras, including Roman and early medieval. Find out how the Romans lived, meet militant Batavians, visit farmers from the Iron Age and go on a hunt in the prehistoric times. At the preHistorisch Dorp, interpreters dressed in historical clothes bring the history of this province to life, going about everyday tasks and interacting with visitors in programs and workshops. These might include learning to make a fire as prehistoric people did, baking bread on a stick, or learning how to make a Roman fibula (garment pin). Prehistoric farming methods, hand weaving and spinning, metalwork, and other skills are demonstrated and discussed here. Although very engaging for children, this is an experience for all ages.

Philips Museum

The Philips Museum is located in the center of Eindhoven, where Gerard Philips produced his first light bulbs in 1891. Here you will be taken into the story of the company. You see how Philips is constantly reinventing itself and how it plays an important role in social change with innovative technology. First with electric light, later with radio, television and the arrival of the digital age. And right now Philips is at the forefront of major changes in healthcare. Always with the aim: to improve people's lives.

Didn't go expecting a huge amount, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I learned and how interactive and wide-ranging the exhibits were. The museum is really well done. The cost for an adult ticket is 9euros and it took me just under 2 hours to go through the museum - I went slowly, however. The real standouts for me were hearing about Jan Zwartendijk and the thousands he saved during WW2 by giving out Curacao visas. There are some excellent stories of survivors and the quite epic journeys they took from Lithuania. I also really enjoyed the section on PSV Eindhoven and the history of this great football club. It was really interesting to see how this company has shaped so much of this city, and especially so the football club. The staff were really friendly and there is a good audio tour for the last bit. The virtual reality headsets give an interesting look into the future of urban cities and how Philips envisions us living in the future - the virtual reality headsets are super cool and would be suitable for both young and old. I can't recommend this museum enough. If in Eindhoven, make sure you take the time to visit!
