Museum House 1912

Step back in time and experience life from the early 20th century at Museum House 1912, a remarkably preserved house in the Zeeuws-Vlaamse town of Nieuwvliet. This unique museum offers an authentic glimpse into the daily life of the time.

What can you expect at Museum House 1912?

• Historic Dwelling: Built in 1912 by Pieter de Hullu, a wealthy farmer and bachelor. After his death in 1958, the house remained unchanged, complete with original furniture and decorations from the 1900-1950 period.
• Lifelike Furnishing: The house contains a front and back room, a cellar with a small cellar room, box beds, and an open attic. The show room, where Pieter slept, and the resident housekeeper's room offer a fascinating view of the living conditions of that time.
• Authentic Experiences: Visitors can try on Cadzand costume, if they have made an appointment in advance, and children can dress up as children from that era, complete with aprons and caps.
• Interactive Activities: Children are allowed to engage in old-fashioned activities such as pumping, coffee grinding, and lying in a box bed. They can also weigh out sweets and learn more about the daily life of a century ago.
• Garden and Forgotten Vegetables: The museum's garden grows old "forgotten" vegetables, providing a unique insight into historical agricultural practices.
