The Place for All Things Dutch

Oranjehof is an award-winning museum. Where we tell the story of de Nederlanders in Aotearoa. But it’s much more than that. Have a look here online, but also...

Come and have a koffie met appeltaart. At Te Awahou Nieuwe Stroom in Foxton, or De Molen cafe. Make it your place, jouw plek, to get in touch with all things Dutch.

Find the stories of people just like you.  Join us for our annual Big Dutch Day Out to celebrate Koningsdag, or bring the little ones to meet Sinterklaas...

We're Interactive, and Fun

Take a selfie, sitting on a Dutch bicycle. Play a game of sjoelen. Listen to Dutch radio. Smell the speculaas.

Or climb to the top of windmill De Molen next door, and buy some freshly ground flour for pannenkoeken.

Enjoy that typical, quirky Dutch sense of humour. Admire our draaiorgel De Papegaai, and models of Tasman's ships De Zeehaen en de Heemskerck.

Lose yourself for a few hours in stories you never knew. All about art, heritage, gezelligheid en Nederlandse taal.
