The Rijssens Museum is a city museum located in the stately manor house De Oosterhof, popularly known as 'The Castle'. The museum tells the remarkable history of one of the oldest cities in Twente through a varied collection and it gives a picture of how people lived back then. It displays art, traditional costumes and measuring and weighing instruments, archaeological finds and an interactive art gallery. Attention is also paid to the former jute industry, which was very important to the Rijssen economy in the past. In our manor house you will also find MUSEUMGALERIE DE OOSTERHOF. Six times a year a duo exhibition of recognized artists can be seen here. Think of bronze plastics, ceramic design, wood sculptures, glass art, oil paintings, watercolors, etchings, woodcuts et cetera. All the artworks exhibited in the museum gallery are also for sale. With various diverse exhibitions, lectures, films, treasure hunts and the summer museum days, the Rijssens Museum is an attraction for young and old! The Fire Brigade Museum, located on the same site, also offers many fun activities for children.
