Paleis Het Loo in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands. The palace is currently being renovated and will be re-opened in 2021, but you are more than welcome to the gardens, stables, restaurants and our events!

We went to see the castle during this Summer's heatwave in Holland. The castle was closed due to comprehensive restoration work, which will end with the opening of a modern museum at the castle grounds in 2021, but the gardens and the rooftop terrace were open. When you're in, a lift takes you to the roof, from where the amazing garden opens in all its splendor. The hedges and flowers in the garden are laid out in intricate patterns, and around the garden you'll find various sculptures in relation to myths and sculptures from classical antiquity. Beautiful fountains dot the grounds, and you can spend quite some time wandering around looking at all the various details in the flowers, sculptures and fountains. The garden is incredibly well kept. The palace is usually closed on Mondays, although there may be exceptions. The price of an adult ticket is 8,5 euro.

We found this place quite by accident whilst looking for things to do in the area whilst on holiday and I can honestly say it was one of the highlights of our holiday. It is a living museum showing the history of Dutch farming, craftsmen and lots more besides. The majority of the buildings are original and have been relocated to this place from their original sites throughout he country, some of which were over 100years old. There was so much to see and do, lots of beautiful windmills and and there were signs in English explaining the history of everything. There was an ice rink as it was winter and a fairground with lots of little stalls selling things to eat and drink. A old style tram was available to go around the place if you didn't want to walk. An amazing place which we would definitely go back to.

The chained library is open only to short tours with a guide. Very rare piece of history - both in the building and in the books - that was well explained. For just a few Euros - for church and library this is definitely worth a visit

Museum about hiding and resistance in difficult times. The museum highlights everyday life during WW2 and the personal choices that people had to make at the time. The emphasis is on going into hiding in occupation time.
