Hiking

In Van Gogh's time, the house of weaver Pieter Dekkers stood here. Vincent was impressed by the home weavers, their poverty and hard work are often reflected in his work.

This was the home of home weaver Pieter Dekkers, who served as the model for Vincent van Gogh's painting "The Weaver" in 1884. The dilapidated building, dating from the mid-1800s, was sold in 1981 and completely demolished. The house has stood there since 1983.
