HAPPY HISTORY
The Hembrug site has a rich history that is still visible today in the buildings, stories, and special places on the site.
With Happy History, we invite visitors to discover this history for themselves. In addition to the Hembrug Museum program, you can also head out on your own. Follow our route across the grounds and go on a discovery tour past historical locations and hidden stories. This way, you will learn more about the military past, the industrial development, and the transformation into the creative and cultural hub that the Hembrug site is today.
Below you will find all the historical components and participants of Happy History.
Our route and the program, including any timings, will be added later and announced as soon as possible.
