Museum of Folklore
 
Eight almshouses from the 17th century, with a modern architectural extension, contain a collection of old objects in a series of different decors from the days of yesteryear: a classroom, a cobbler`s workshop, a hatter`s workshop, a cooper`s (barrel-maker`s) workshop, a Flemish living room, a confectioner`s bakery, a pharmacy, an inn, a tailor`s workshop, traditional textiles, and an authentic bedroom interior. Every Thursday afternoon, fresh sweets are made, using traditional recipes and techniques. Twice a year the museum opens it doors to take part in local festivals: the Aristide Festival on the first Saturday in September and the Midwinter Festival on the Sunday before Christmas.
