beautiful old historic house, no wait, not crowded, small coffeeshop in the place, clean bathrooms.

Lovely 1700-1800's period home with complete rooms and all the owners artifacts plus some more which create an interesting museum for adults and children. Includes a coffee shop in the back. Located in a setting over looking a boat-filled canal. Very charming and well done. Nice booklet guide worth keeping as a momento.

Nice museum, you can see here how people lived in 1900s

Huis van Gijn brings you 100 years back in time and gives you a close look to the lavish life of van Gijs. The entrance is free for kids, and I have no idea how much the entrance is for adults, though I used my Rotterdampas for free entry 😁 I wouldn't recommend this place for kids under the age of five because there is nothing interactive for the little once. Main visitors were adults and elderly so running or overactive kids might annoy the visitors. There are interesting unique rooms inside, like the room with gold and leather wallpaper (the one and only in the Netherlands!) The only interactive thing is the opportunity to get dressed as the 1900s 😁 my 10 years old daughter loved it. In the basement, you can find a collection of toys and dolls and an adorable carousel. It doesn't belong to the house of Gijn, though.

Nice museum! We were done in half an hour. There was a lot to see. The location is also great.

So cool! The interior is so elegant and sophisticated. I really enjoyed seeing every room.

A very atmospheric place, like plunging into the last century, walking around the rooms and imagining past times, it was exciting!!! Special thanks to the staff, the man at the checkout was very kind to us and friendly. A MUST TO VISIT.

Amazing place. It's beautiful and also very interesting.

Really great museum. Nice to see an old house with all the furnishings. Really nice high ceilings. The collection is nice and varied and the top floor has many antique toys to admire. Clean restrooms which is a plus!

Very lovely museum to visit. Nice atmosphere, dimmed lighting and just right size for a nice museum pause.

A fascinating peek into the life of a family more than a hundred years ago. Well preserved and with a lot of accessible information. A beautiful garden with a cafe. Great place for children because of the toy attack.

Worth visit! Amazing collection in beautiful house! Love miniature collection at the attic.

Very beautiful house. It worths the visit

(Translated by Google) It was very nice and looked nice, the part of the dolls and the part where you can put on some of the clothes from that time are very entertaining. During a date we first went to eat something and ten visited and I had a lot of fun! :)) (Up to 19 years is free so that's nice too) (Original) Het was erg leuk en zag er mooi uit, het deel van de poppen en het deel waar je wat van de kleding uit die tijd aan kan doen zijn erg vermakelijk. Tijdens een date zijn we eerst wat gaan eten en tien hier langs geweest en ik heb me heel erg vermaakt!:)) (Tot 19 jaar is gratis dus dat is ook leuk)

Very impressive how they kept most of the original items, I really loved this museum. Sorry did not take pictures...

Nice to have a look at a late 19th century interior

Nicely maintained museum. Lots to see and so much of it accessible from close up. After a visit through the home a nice garden to enjoy a lunch, coffee, tea and sweets.

Beautiful fun museum with a lovely cafe

A nice place to have a look at Dutch interior and other collections

Beautiful spaces and furniture. Dive into history. Explanations in Dutch.

Wonderful atmosphere ... a time trap.

It's a very interesting museum, please go to the roof and see the playground, dolls and toys. I also find the paintings in the function rooms very beatiful.

A fabulous house museum, which gives you a real insight in how the inhabitants lived through the ages, from 1760s when it was built onwards. Beautiful tapestries, embossed wallpaper and household items, and collections of glass and pottery. Highlight of my visit to Dordrecht. Good cafe too.

Very interesting place!

Loved the history!

Interesting reconstruction.

Amazing place. I was surprised almost with everything in the house.

Top! Travel back in time...

(Translated by Google) Fantastic beautiful and interesting museum. Take the audio tour with you, because you will get a lot of useful information about the ins and outs of the Van Gijn family. Especially watch the extra videos on the audio tour. They are very well designed and often humorous to see. If you want to see everything properly then you will have spent about two hours. The museum cafe is also nice to have something to eat and drink. We really enjoyed this beautiful museum. (Original) Fantastisch mooi en interessant museum. Neem vooral de audiotour mee want dan krijg je ontzettend veel nuttige informatie mee over het reilen en zeilen van de familie Van Gijn. Bekijk vooral de extra filmpjes op de audiotour. Die zijn heel goed opgezet en vaak humoristisch om te zien. Als je alles goed wil zien dan ben je ongeveer twee uurtjes kwijt. Ook het museumcafé is leuk om even iets te eten en drinken. Wij hebben ontzettend genoten van dit fraaie museum.
