Boerenslimheid
Discover how Kempen people lived, worked and lived , at a time when farmers could barely survive on the barren heathland soil. Also, due to rapid industrial developments , they had to tap into their creativity. The museum shows how the region overcame these hard times and through innovations and cooperation became one of the smartest regions in the world.
Enjoy on site
Located on the junction route, the museum welcomes many cyclists , hikers culture lovers, bus groups, and (grand)parents with children. Fully accessible for the disabled, the museum also offers spoken texts for the blind and visually impaired, allowing everyone to enjoy the lively history of this remarkable piece of Brabant. Outside, you can enjoy the fragrant herb, flower and forgotten vegetable garden, set against a jewel of an orchard with old apple trees. Art has not been forgotten at this great location either.
Creative nostalgia
There are various interactive packages for groups to discover the museum and its surroundings. Like the "Smuggling Walk" or "Boundless Enjoyment". With the bus package "Smuggling Route " you go back in time to the time of the "Romantic Crime". Or the cross-border "Teuten en Landlopersroute" and "Kerken en Kapellekesroute" which take you through the Kempen region of Brabant. The Museumsnuffel is ideal for families and company outings. One enthusiastic guest therefore rightly concluded : "It is a surprising and informative museum, also for young people ".
