Hunebedden Centrum Borger

The Hunebedden Centrum is an archaeological museum in Borger-Odoorn focused on the region's prehistoric past. It features reconstructed Stone Age dwellings, artifacts from the Neolithic period, and information about the first farming communities that settled in this area.

The museum documents the settlement of this area, which began about 10,000 years ago when the first farmers arrived after the last Ice Age. These communities left traces in monuments and tools that have survived for millennia.

The museum shows how early farming communities organized their daily lives in this region. The displays reveal the practical skills and routines that shaped these ancient settlements.

The location sits in a rural area with straightforward access for visitors who should plan enough time for a thorough walk around the grounds. On-site pathways suit both children and adults, and the grounds can be explored at a relaxed pace without rushing.

Next to the museum stands the largest dolmen in the Netherlands, an ancient stone burial structure built long before the more famous pyramids. Visitors can touch this massive stone monument and experience directly how impressive the scale of this Neolithic construction was.
