Amazing 😍🤟 tech savvy or tech fan? Visit this!
Surprisingly nice collection of all sorts of Apple products! If you are a fan of the company, or just love computers, pay a visit!
The tour guide, in our case not the regular one, makes this small but complete museum a need to visit.
Excellent tour in English by a passionate and knowledgeable guide - well worth the money
Very interesting and many stories about Apple 👍👍👍
(Translated by Google) Passionate guide who takes you through Apple's history with interesting stories and anecdotes. Definitely worth it! Take some time for it. Very interesting objects to see. (Original) Gepassioneerde gids die je meeneemt met interessante verhalen en anekdotes door geschiedenis van Apple. Zeker de moeite waard! Neem er even de tijd voor. Zeer een interessanten objecten te zien.
(Translated by Google) A beautiful collection of Apple products, both hardware and software. Surprising location too, in an old Drenthe farm, in the middle of historic Orvelte. They also take plenty of time for a guided tour. Recommended! (Original) Een prachtige collectie van Apple-producten, zowel hardware als software. Verassende locatie ook, in een oude Drentse boerderij, midden in historisch Orvelte. Men neemt ook ruim de tijd voor een rondleiding. Aanrader!

If you're into paper, and papercutting art, this is definitely worth a visit! The volunteers are so lovely and welcoming! The founder's son continues to carry on protecting this beautifully delicate art's legacy and even offers to cut your silhouette (small fee). The museum itself is smaller than average, but it makes the space more intimate allowing you to spend a great deal of time appreciating the mastery and detail in each piece without feeling overwhelmed. There is also the opportunity to make your own papercutting with materials and guidance provided for free - excellent for beginners. It is such a great way to spend part of an afternoon. The location is also great as you have a choice of places across the street where you can grab some food or drinks before or after your visit. I will be visiting again whenever I'm in the region.
(Translated by Google) Well, if you are in Westerbork and have a friend who knows the art of paper cutting - and how! - then you will of course also want to visit this museum yourself. Nice welcome by the hostess and afterwards a pleasant conversation with one of the 'cutters'. Watched the cutting art with great interest. For so much creativity - often on the square millimeter - absolute kudos. It's also nice to see that there are so many variations, such as the cut result with multiple layers 'placed one after the other'. This gives the artwork even more depth. In short: we enjoyed this exhibition: it is certainly recommended to others. (Original) Tsja, als je in Westerbork bent en dan ook nog een vriendin hebt die de kunst van het papierknippen machtig is -èn hóe!- dan wil je natuurlijk zelf ook dit museum bezoeken. Leuke ontvangst door de gastvrouw en daarna ook gezellig gesproken met een van de 'knipsters'. Met veel interesse de knipkunst bekeken. Voor zoveel creativiteit -vaak op de vierkante milimeter- absoluut Chapeau. Leuk ook om te zien dat er zoveel variaties zijn, zoals bijvoorbeeld het geknipte resultaat met meerdere lagen 'achter elkaar plaatsen'. Daardoor krijgt het kunstwerk nog meer diepte. Kortom: wij hebben genoten van deze expositie: het is zeker voor anderen een aanrader.
(Translated by Google) What an unexpected but fun experience! On the way to my campsite in Schoonloo, I made a quick stop to do some shopping. When I saw the museum across the road, I couldn't resist taking a look inside. I received a very warm welcome, and after some explanation about the works on display, I looked around for myself. The museum itself isn't very big, but there's plenty to see. After viewing all the works, I was immediately able to join a mini paper cutting workshop. There were several examples with varying degrees of difficulty. I chose a cow shape myself. It was super fun, and I've definitely gained a new hobby. Thank you for your hospitality and the pleasant atmosphere. That alone would make me recommend this museum. The cow and the other card I received as a gift will definitely get a special place! ☺️ (Original) Wat een onverwachte maar leuke ervaring!Onderweg naar mijn camping in Schoonloo even een korte tussenstop gemaakt om boodschappen te doen. Toen ik aan de overkant van de weg het museum zag kon ik het toch niet laten om binnen even een kijkje te nemen. Heel aardig ontvangen en na wat uitleg over de werken die er hingen zelf rondgekeken. Het museum zelf is niet heel groot maar er hangt genoeg. Na alle werken bekeken te hebben kon ik meteen aansluiten bij een mini workshop over papierknipkunst. Er zaten verschillende voorbeelden bij met variatie in hoe moeilijk ze waren. Zelf een vormpje van een koe gekozen. Super leuk om te doen en heb er zeker een nieuwe hobby bij. Bedankt voor de gastvrijheid en de gezelligheid. Alleen daarvoor zou ik dit museum al aanraden. De koe en het andere kaartje, wat ik cadeau kreeg, krijgen zeker een mooi plekje! ☺️
(Translated by Google) Highly recommended! Small, impressive museum. Very detailed work. Afterwards, you can even make your own paper-cut artwork with a lovely volunteer! (Original) Aanrader! Klein indrukwekkend museum. Heel gedetailleerd werk. Daarna kan je met een lieve vrijwilligster ook zelf een knipkunstwerkje maken!
(Translated by Google) Nice little museum about Cutting Art from 1700 to the present! Beautiful and exceptionally artistic work. Near a large parking lot and several restaurants with terraces. (Original) Leuk klein museum over Knipkunst van 1700 tot nu! Mooi en bijzonder kunstig werk. Vlakbij grote parkeerplaats en meerdere restaurantjes met terras.
(Translated by Google) What a nice museum. Small but nice and that literally. How artistic are the clippings that can be seen there. You are sucked into the passion of the employees. Really recommended. (Original) Wat een leuk museum. Klein maar fijn en dat letterlijk. Hoe kunstig zijn de knipsels die er te zien zijn. Je wordt meegezogen in de passie van de medewerksters. Echt een aanrader.
(Translated by Google) Museum of paper cutting art is fun to visit. You will certainly be entertained here for an hour. (Even longer if you follow the workshop). Each work of art is even more beautiful than the other! Inside, a lady gave explanations and a short workshop to a group, so much fun. The ladies who were there were very enthusiastic. We bought 4 tickets ourselves and we received tickets. Admission was 6.00 pp, we thought it was worth the money! Moreover, all museums are having a hard time now, let's support them to continue. (Original) Museum van papierknipkunst is leuk om te bezoeken. Je bent hier zeker voor een uur zoet.(mocht je de workshop volgen nog langer) Het ene kunstwerk is nog mooier dan het andere ! Binnen gaf een mevrouw aan een groepje uitleg en een korte workshop, zo leuk. De dames die er zaten waren heel enthousiast. Zelf 4 kaarten gekocht en we kregen kaarten mee. Toegang was 6,00 pp wij vonden het z'n geld waard! Bovendien hebben alle musea het moeilijk nu, laten we ze steunen door te gaan.
(Translated by Google) Nice museum to visit and also very fun for the children to make "a work of art" themselves! The ladies approach this with a lot of patience and great fun! Ivy (just 6) is very proud of her panda! (Original) Leuk museum om te bezoeken en ook voor de kinderen erg leuk om zelf "een kunstwerk" te maken! De dames pakken dit met veel geduld en erg leuk aan! Ivy (net 6) is helemaal trots op haar panda!
