Highlight • Historical Site

Still quite impressive to walk past here and learn more about the history of Veenhuizen. Do that with a pod walk or a guided tour.

Highlight • Historical Site

Anyone who died in the asylums eventually ended up in what was popularly called the fourth and last asylum. In the beginning, the dead were buried in nameless graves. Later this changed and signs were also placed near the graves.
