"Heavy entrance door, creaking floor and ancient old furniture... you’d think you’d gone back in time! All sorts of trinkets and furniture are on display here, with a description of their function and time of course. We can imagine the people portrayed bustling about with all these objects – some of them are a bit strange, if truth be told... We stroll though this grand old house, from room to room, and feel like we’re getting lost in all the nooks and crannies. Finally, we’re back at the starting point and have the choice between going or climbing up to the roof and discovering a small temporary exhibition presented differently from everything we’ve seen so far."
