The "Rijssens Museum" is located in the Manor "De Oosterhof" in Rijssen. The entrance fee must be paid at the counter in the adjacent "Fire Brigade Museum" (See my review). Entrance is free for Dutch annual museum pass holders. Part of the Manor is sub-let to a Rijssen society, but a number of rooms is dedicated to different subjects, the "Van Heel" collection of objects of art, including a collection of silver miniatures, the history of Rijssen, notably a tribute to the famous Dutch writer Belcampo, who spent hit early years in Rijssen and is also buried there. Chilling was the telephone book dated from the '30's of last century, in which all the names of Jewish people, who lived in Rijssen, and did not return after WOII, were overlined in yellow. Furthermore, local costumes from earlier times can be admired and in the huge attic, the tale of washing and ironing in the last centuries is being shown, including a large collection of irons, hand and foot operated sewing machines and a lot more. It is an interesting museum, not to make a detour for, but recommended if staying in the vicinity.

We visited just after 4 May when the Dutch commemorate Remembrance Day for their fallen soldiers, especially those of WWII. Each of the more than 1,500 graves was adorned with two roses. How touching.

Wij vonden als je in een klompendorpje bent, moet je ook naar het klompenmuseum gaan.
Bij binnenkomst viel het, op het eerste gezicht, wat tegen, klein, uitleg via de pc, maar dat viel achteraf heel erg mee. Het filmpje wat je zag, was heel erg leuk en leerzaam, er hingen heel veel verschillende klompen, en na het filmpje begreep je ook de vorm van een heleboel klompen die daar hangen.
De mevrouw die daar aanwezig is, komt na het filmpje er alles over vertellen, en dat is heel veel, maar ook leuk verteld.
Hierna zijn we nog naar het zompenmuseum geweest, wat in hetzelfde gebouw is, en dat is ook een aanrader, ook een heel verhaal uit de pc, maar zo ontzettend leuk verteld, dat je er ook echt helemaal naar luistert.
Dit is ook zeer interessant om met kinderen te doen.

The name suggests, its outside, but it is a real visitors center telling you all about what you can find outside. It is geared up for all kinds of visitors, young, old, less mobile, etc. And if all you want is a bite to eat, its got a really good cafe/resturant.

We have an annual pass and visited many times during our week-long stay in the area, during which visitor levels varied greatly, from non-existent to very busy, however waiting times for all the rides were never too long and nothing compared to waiting times you’d expect at UK Amusement Parks. Immediately after entry there is a table from where you can pick up site maps/leaflets in either Dutch or German. There is also a measuring station to the right, and here your children can be professionally measured and given a coloured wristband to tell them (and ride operators) which rides they can go on by themselves, which they’ll need to be accompanied on, and which they are still too small to try. These wristbands are also handy to write emergency contact details on, should your child get lost. Inside the park you’ll find a nice balance of rides and something for each member of the family, although this is not a large park by any stretch of the imagination. The three towers are a very popular climbing frame and physical play area, and behind this is a delightful ride area (Dreamer’s Land) for very young children. The rest of the park is a nice mix of traditional rides, and to the far left of the park is the slide-park, where the young and young at heart can enjoy water-slides. Whilst there is a bit of sand, there is no pool, or even paddling pool of any description. The only real failing is at the water-slides, where the low number of changing rooms, creates a bit of a jam upon opening, but is suitable enough in number when the slide park has been open for a while and is in full use. Whilst there is no paddling pool, there is a wet play area for toddlers to enjoy, and around it are a number of seats (always in high demand, perhaps because deckchairs are five euros to hire) and tables for the on-site snack bar, which serves hot and cold food, such as burgers, chips (friet), ham salad rolls, ice creams, and the usual range of hot and cold drinks. It should be stated that the quality of food served here depends greatly on the sole member of staff on duty at the time, and staff would seem to rotate roles on a regular basis. I received a perfect cheeseburger, friet, ham salad roll, however the gentleman who was served by a different member of staff later received a large order of sausages that were all still frozen in the centre, and were returned. I believe that some of food served here is also a bit cheaper than elsewhere within the park, although they don’t serve Krokets, you can only get those in the main restaurant, either to eat in (on China plates), or take away (black plastic plates). The slide park opens much later than the adventure park itself, I assume to allow the water to heat up in the Sunshine (it isn’t heated, or at least didn’t feel like it), so do get all your rides in first, before getting changed, however the slide-park also starts to close down long before the rest of the park, so when you’ve had enough, get back out quickly to the smaller rides first, as these stop before the big ones. Do also ensure you see the stunt show, which was superb. As with many of the other attractions in the area, whilst staff are multilingual, the posters, displays, shows and signs are in Dutch, although there is a very small concession for German speakers here. Overall the park was clean, but there are signs of wear here and there, nothing to put one off any of the rides, however the brick pavement in places wouldn’t be acceptable in the UK, as some raised bricks are a genuine trip hazard. As with many other such parks, there is also a serious lack of shelter should it rain, so this is definitely another fair weather venue, and as such visitor numbers vary depending on the forecast. For a family with children under 12 it is well worth a visit when in the area, but it isn’t world-class.

The old things on show were interesting to see. I think we were given a free cup of coffee there but I'm not absolutely sure of that. The goodies on sale in the shop were far too expensive!

Op het landgoed De Barkel ligt de gelijknamige Pleisterplaats. Onderdeel van een viertal uitgezette wandelroutes ( w.o. vanaf het NS-Station Wierden) en een zgn. Rustplaats in de Fietsknooproutes in de regio. Het is een informatiepunt voor cultuurhistorie en archeologie. O.a.reconstructie van grafheuvels.
Een aantal terrassen in en rond de prachtige Historische Tuin. Zelfbediening: Koffie,thee, fris e.a. (aanrader: appelnotengebak). Op afspraak worden er workshops gegeven.

This place is a fantastic place for kids, combining animals and playground. There are several farm animal areas that can be entered allowing the kids to interact with the animals and a large playground with a variety of areas, including a trampoline, large pirate ship and zip line among some of the many things.
There is also a large indoor cafe with kids play area also as well as reptiles, if the weather is not good. The great thing about this place is that it is charity run and enlists people with intellectual disabilities to work there, they also have hand made items for sale.
It only costs 1.50 Euros for a visit, so would encourage people to make use of such a local fantastic attraction.
