Cooking for Each Other

Come to the event "Cooking for Each Other" at the Dutch Open Air Museum on Saturday, September 23, for Neighbor Day. Have you ever wanted to do something special for people in need but don't know where to start? Join us for a meal at the museum and meet the home cooks from Thuisgekookt (Cooked at Home).

Look after each other

At the Dutch Open Air Museum we are asking visitors to think about how we look after each other. How did we do this in the past, how do we do it today and how will we do it in the future? Who do you care about? Would you provide informal care for a loved one if they needed it? What if you had to rely on care yourself? Do you sometimes cook a little extra food so you can take some round to a lonely neighbour? And what can we learn from travellers? How do they care for the people around them? We are also making an appeal to everyone: look after each other!

You can visit various themed locations around the museum park.

NEW: The holiday chalet from Warnsveld.

Stories of escape and resistance in the run-up to World War II

Built in 1936 by the Gies family from Zutphen, the holiday chalet provides the setting for a narrative about daily life in the run-up to the Second World War, from three different perspectives.

Anton de Kom exhibition

Anton de Kom (1898 – 1945) was born in Suriname and was an anticolonialist thinker, author, poet, human rights activist and resistance fighter. This exhibition, co-created with Surinamese artist Ken Doorson, presents Anton de Kom and his ideas to a wide audience.
