Visitors Centre De Gesteentetuin Schokland

Temporarily closed

Would you like to visit the former island of Schokland? Then start at the Visitors’ centre at De Gesteentetuin Schokland. The staff there can tell you all about the surroundings, activities and routes.

In De Gesteentetuin you journey through time. It all starts some 200,000 years ago. In De Gesteentetuin a number of glacial erratics (boulders) are visible that were left behind by the glaciers at the end of the Ice Age in the Noordoostpolder. Look at an exhibition about the origin of the earth and of stones and discover the history and nature of Schokland. Children can play in the look-and-act attic at different sorts of games and activities.
