Buket Eren
It is a small but really cute museum. It gives the feeling of walking in a house in 1800s. We loved to look around in the house and read about some of the unfamiliar items aim of use. You can also put some clothes on from these times and take some photos. Museum card is valid here.

Clean and tidy restrooms with hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, and a diaper changing station. The museum's environment and staff are warm and friendly.

Amazing place to see the rich heritage and a bit of history of Geithorn. We passed by and visited the museum. The lovely people who manage the place are very warm and very very sweet. They let us try Heritage Food that is very tasty. Realy warm place to visit. Thank you very much.

Loved the place! They have audio aids with explanations in a lot of languages. The place is really nice, you will find a lot of information about the village, it was actually pretty interesting. They have old clothes, furniture, and everything is arranged as if we were living in the old Giethoorn. I went on a Saturday and they were selling knieperties, so delicious!

Are you also curious about the history of the place you visited? If so, it's an excellent opportunity to learn about the past of this fairy-tale village and the life of the people who used to live there. Although it is not a very big museum, the history is explained in detail. Authentic items and clothing are on display. You can also try historical clothes and clogs and take pictures.
In summer, enjoy fresh air by opening the canal-side windows. In winter, dress warmly as rooms can feel chilly and quieter, making it easier to soothe your baby indoors.
