The Open-air Museum focuses on the craftsmanship of today, yesterday and tomorrow. Immerse yourself in the story of bread, beer and textiles, watch craftsmen and -women at work or get creative yourself in one of the workshop barns.
Craftsmanship is at the heart of museum areas Kempen and Oost-en West-Vlaanderen. Our craftsmen and -women are happy to show you the tricks of their trade and take you into the wonderful world of craft techniques.
In Bokrijk, you can not only admire numerous demonstrations, you can also get to work as a ‘craftsman’ yourself in one of our 5 workshops: get to know the basic techniques of a trade and make your own pot, bake your own bread, make a leather bracelet, print a gym bag or shopping bag to your own design, …
Please note: due to the great popularity, there may be queues of around 30 minutes. A workshop costs € 5.
