    Hiking

    In recent years, a group of volunteers has completely restored the unique 'Electricity plant' of Veenhuizen, with complete inventory, and brought it back to its original, monumental state. The Kromhout diesel engine from 1928 is able to run again after years of tinkering. You can book a running demonstration of the Kromhout diesel engine by appointment. During the Museum Weekend and the Open Heritage Days, anyone can visit the Electricity Plant
