Remarkable experience. As if you step back in time. The explanation by the guide is very useful and gives excellent insight in the thinking behind and design of the house. Furniture is in excellent condition despite the many visitors. More

Fantastic to be in the house after seeing it in art & arch. History classes. Was very fortunate to have a docent who took us beyond the audio tour and demonstrated the partitions and other features of the house. She even opened the windows More
