Rondleiding

A guided tour through the landscape of The Colony of Benevolence Veenhuizen invites participants to journey back in time and uncover the hidden stories and dynamics of corrective landscape architecture.

Step back into the history of Veenhuizen, a former penal colony, and uncover hidden stories intertwined within its landscape. This guided tour, led by designer and researcher Freja Nielsen (Design Academy Eindhoven), offers a unique exploration of overlooked landmarks. Participants engage with a “mobile time machine” to experience the landscape through co-creation. The immersive journey allows visitors to reconstruct past scenarios, revealing how the landscape shaped the behaviors of its former inhabitants. This reflective experience highlights the relationship between landscape elements and the feelings of inclusion and exclusion.

English spoken tour, starts Saturday 13:00 and Sunday 13:00.
