Google Maps (Street View)
The Volkskundemuseum is housed in eight 17th century almshouses, with a modern extension. Here you can see a classroom, cobblers, milliners, and cooper’s workshops, a tailor’s, a pharmacy, a patisserie, an inn, a Flemish living room, a bedroom, and traditional textiles. Each room contains a wealth of antique objects and authentic decors.
On the top floor, you can enjoy our new lace section.
If you come on the first or third Thursday afternoon of the month, you won’t be disappointed: this is when we make sweets in the traditional way!
