The Museum of the Woman in Echt is one of a kind. Nowhere in the Netherlands will you find a museum devoted to women and their lives. As dynamic as that is, that's how the museum tells its stories. Successive exhibitions shed light on the life of women and the history of the municipality of Echt-Susteren.
Identity remains the common thread: presenting women's and family life in all its facets. The Museum of Women opts for current themes. It is not a static collection of objects but a place where stories are told and preserved.
The Museum has a changing exhibition on the first floor and a permanent exhibition in the form of the Wonderkabinet on the ground floor. Special objects from the municipal history of Echt-Susteren are presented in the Wonderkabinet.
The Museum of the Woman is located in the municipality of Echt-Susteren, the narrowest part of the Netherlands. It is located in the old town hall of Echt, an iconic monumental building in the center of the village, next to St. Landricus Church.
