We visited on a wet satutday mid june. There was a well shaded free carpark which was good as dogs are not allowed in. It is a short walk up a tree lined drive to the house. We were greeted by a gentleman in the house who spoke excellent english & who gave us leaflets in English & offered an audio guide. The house was extremely interesting with lots of little strange items. You daw both the owners & the servants areas which is something I always enjoy seeing both sides. The gardens made a relaxing walk & were beautifully laid out. Free with the museum kart.

Another eye-catching building is added to the skyline of Groningen's historic city centre. Forum Groningen, open since november 2019, was designed by Amsterdam-based NL Architects for the City of Groningen. It covers a surface area of 17,000 m2 on ten floors, is open seven days a week and hosts a diverse array of activities around one coherent ambition: explore the world, discover the future. Forum Groningen's ambition is to let today's world and tomorrow's opportunities inspire the residents and visitors of Groningen. It hopes to achieve this with international exhibitions, film and literature festivals, as well as courses, workshops and talks. Forum Groningen challenges the public to keep an open mind while exposing them to the latest social and technological developments. To this end, the Forum hosts exhibitions and has the interactive Storyworld museum, five cinemas, a multi-purpose events venue, the city library, study and work places, a Medialab and a Smartlab.
Cool building that you can enter free of charge. On the ground floor is a shop selling items for tourists. There seem to be activities organised for children and many people using it as a work space. Make sure you go to the roof top terrace for amazing views .

The first station building was completed in 1865 and demolished in 1894. The second and current station building was designed by Izaak Gosschalk, completed in 1896, and most recently restored in 2000. Train services started in 1866 and are currently provided by Nederlandse Spoorwegen and Arriva. There are 41 bus services at the station provided by Qbuzz. Since 1961 my parents moved with me from Schiedam to Eelde, a nearby village, so in those days we used the train to visit grandparents near Amersfoort often. In those years the beautiful ceiling in the entrance hall was hidden by a low white simple and cheap one. In the early nineties I guess there was a huge restoration project of the railwaystation. All of this old beauty was revealed again and since then it is a must see in the town Groningen stop ,whenever I have visitors from other places to show them around.

Excellent way to get an outstanding view of the entire city!! Wonderful breeze when you get to the top of the tower and cool throughout the walkway to the top of the tower.
