Visit with Children

Looking for a fun day out for young and old alike? Come to Museum Amersfoort and enjoy a day full of stories, activities and surprises.

Journey through time

In the Amorfortia exhibition, journey through time and discover how Amersfoort has developed into the city it is today. View art and unusual artefacts, and explore the stories of the city. You’ll discover Amersfoort through the multimedia model, full of surprises and spots to explore together.

See and do at Carla Kogelman

Carla Kogelman loves people who are completely themselves. Through her black-and-white photographs, she shows us stories of love, freedom, play and, sometimes, a touch of sadness. Discover the exhibition ‘Carla Kogelman: A Closer Look’ with a ‘See and Do’ booklet (in Dutch, available at reception).

Play tables in the Maak Mee Atelier

Is playing just for children? Certainly not! Playing may not have a specific goal, but it is precisely through play that you stay creative and discover surprising solutions. In the exhibition, you’ve seen how Carla Kogelman photographs people of all ages whilst they’re playing. In the Maak Mee Atelier, you can have a go yourself. Choose a play table and play on your own or with others. For example, build a silly tower or get creative with clay. Take photos of each other whilst you play, print your photo using the mini photo printer and hang it up in the Maak Mee Atelier.
