Rocks from Norwegian and Swedish origin. During ice age(s) pushed south by glaciers as far as the Netherlands. Some really massive ones. While they're currently inconvenient for agriculture, they found purpose some 4-5.000 years ago bij ancient people. Either used as shelter or religious/sacred rituals such as tombs. This place allows travelling in time and get a glimpse of what once were habits and means of survival of these people. (Picture of Hunebed is at Diever, number D52, which is part of the Hunebed heritage)

We enjoyed our visit to the area. The exhibits inside were great. Outside the stones and hunebed told a very interesting story for the area

Educational experience easy to understand and with a good amount of interactive stops. Good amount of explanations accompanied with very visual representations or examples. Very helpful to go into the prehistoric park, since it helps with the visualization of the way the people back then would live.

Thoroughly enjoyed the visit, despite rainy conditions. Entrance fee (9.50 for adults) is not to shabby, but given the exposition at display not to much either. The indie exposition starts with a movie which was somewhat confusing but entertaining.

Following are some informative movies and maquettes and the chance to visit a hunebed as it would have been back in the days.

Following this, we went outside to the little areas that showed some of the ways people lived in iron and bronze ages as well as replica hunebed. Much to our surprise, the houses were occupied by people dressed in the fashion of that era and very willing to explain house things worked on those days.
One word of warning: don't wear your best when visiting these houses, they are birthing a wood fire which is very cosy, but also very smoky and there wasn't much of a chimney around in these times so you *will* reek of smoke afterwards :)

All in all a very pleasant and informative way to spend an afternoon, definitely recommended.

You absolutely must visit this place! Very informative museum and exciting displays created by skillful craftsmen. They have built houses and monuments exactly as they would have built them thousands of years ago and you can experience what it would be to live in those ages.

Every few weeks they have markets where you can find fossils, old crafts, rare stones, gems and hand crafted jewelry. One a year there is this immense market where more than 80 stands display their crafted goods, their old archeological findings and have activities for young and young at heart.

We love and enjoyed the place and their friendly and helpful staff.

Nice place that was much bigger than we originally thought. They have lots of interactive things to play with where kids (and adults) can learn how neolithic communities lived. Definitely worth a visit

The center shows you some of the important history of the Netherlands. They've set it up interactively for young and older.
The Hunebed close to the center is the biggest one in the Netherlands.
We had a good time during the visit.

Awesome place. Lots of interesting archeological information and reconstructed houses from the different times in the distant past that give a good impression of what life might have been like.
