At the House of Alijn, discover how we live, party, love and relax. Together with your family and friends, reminisce and exchange stories about the past and present.
During an interactive visit, you will discover many recognisable objects, photos, sounds and videos from the 20th and 21st centuries. Rummage through photo albums, read out a New Year's letter, redo your opening dance or challenge each other to a game of Pac-Man.
With your museum ticket, you can also visit the temporary exhibition ‘To your health!'.
Peculiar miracle cures, nutritional tips and sports challenges. Every day, we come across all kinds of advice to take better care of ourselves. What do we need to stay physically and mentally healthy? How have our views on this topic changed? And what role do science, government, media and advertising play in this regard?
From the toilet to the kitchen and the bedroom. In this exhibition, you’ll discover what special tools we have used throughout the 20th and 21st centuries to live long, healthy and happy lives.
