Forge Museum Nieuwkoop

This museum captures the rich history of Nieuwkoop and the forges and will give you an impression of the life and work of the smiths and their families. The typical small home with the workplace behind it brings us back to a piece of history: the heyday of the forges. During this tour you will see forging done the traditional way, and there is a tour through the living spaces as well. They´ll inform you of the ups and downs in the history of forging, and you will see how people used to live. 

The museum opens every thursday from 14:00 to 17:00. Groups of 8 persons or more can plan a visit on other days, as the museum can open on appointment!
