Netherlands Open Air Museum, Open-air museum in Arnhem, Netherlands

The Netherlands Open Air Museum spans 44 hectares, featuring historical buildings, farmhouses, windmills, and workshops relocated from various regions across the Netherlands.

Founded in 1912 by historian Frederic Adolph Hoefer, the museum began with six transferred buildings, including a 17th-century farmhouse from Beuningen.

Museum employees dressed in period clothing demonstrate traditional Dutch crafts, including blacksmithing, papermaking, printing, and milling throughout the exhibition spaces.

The museum welcomes over 524,000 visitors annually and operates from Wednesday to Monday between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM with limited wheelchair accessibility.

Visitors can travel through the grounds on historical trams while exploring different themed areas such as Gardens, Village, Countryside, and Estate sections.
