The children's loft
Oh, Captain! In the children's attic there is a sea passage when the ship is steered out to the world's oceans. In port, loading and unloading must be done by means of cranes, ropes and sack wagons. The hammock can be used after the hard work.
See! The dollhouse has grown! In the doll's room with the beautiful old furniture, it is you who is the doll. You can hold tea party, call on the old phone and cuddle on the couch with a good story.
The children's loft on the first floor of Søren May's farm is especially suitable for children from 4 to 10 years.
ArchæoLAB
What is it that the earth is hiding on? In the museum's ArchaeoLAB, you are the archaeologist. You can search for ancient treasures with a metal detector or with some of the digging tools archaeologists use when uncovering finds in the ground. Become wiser about the finds by analyzing and interpreting in the same way as archaeologists do. In ArkæoLAB there are original finds and good stories from three different excavations in the Holbæk area: the Stone Age in Åmosen, the Iron Age in Svinninge and the Middle Ages in Holbæk town. Then put on the reflective vest and get ready for a few exciting hours at ArkæoLab.
ArkæoLab is especially suitable for children from 6-12 years.
