In a bespoke designed park the pinnacle of Dudok's architecture dominates the Hilversum skyline. Still in full use after 90 years, the design marks the creativity and consistency of one of the world's best architects, also responsible for many other design in and around Hilversum. There is a very insightful museum in the cellar and on weekend days you can get a excellent tour around the building; including the tower.

Did the Hillywood Tour with the very friendly and enthousiastic Tim, who loves his job and everything to do with the stage and also to telling all about it; it's infectuous ???? (which in this Corona time might be an odd choice of words, but meant in the best possible way) Had a great time back stage and in the ginormous 'basement' where hundreds pieces of decor and tens of thousands props are stored. Such fun to see how things work in media land.

We went on 'monument day' in the Netherlands and a kind man told us a whole lot about the history of the church and the houses around it. They sometimes have special concerts on the organ during weekdays.
