Description
Museum Wierdenland is a museum located in the town of Ezinge in Groningen. The museum aims to show and preserve the history and landscape of the wierden in the area. Wierden are artificial hills that used to be raised to protect villages and farms against flooding. The museum is housed in a historic building that used to serve as a school building. The building has been restored and converted into a modern museum that focuses on the history of the wierden and the archeology of the area. The museum has a varied collection of archaeological finds, works of art, maps and photos. One of the highlights of Museum Wierdenland is the permanent exhibition 'Living on terpen and wierden'. This exhibition introduces you to life on the wierden and mounds of the past. There are several authentic objects on display, such as an early medieval loom and a reconstructed farmhouse from Roman times. Interactive elements have also been incorporated into the exhibition, allowing you to experience for yourself what it was like to live on a wierde. In addition, the museum regularly organizes temporary exhibitions related to the history of the wierden and the landscape of Groningen. These exhibitions are always surprising and give a new look at the past. |
