Healthy House audio tour

Sonneveld House is not only remarkable in terms of its modern design and luxurious and comfortable interior. It was also designed as a “healthy home” for mind and body. Above all else, Sonneveld House had to be a hygienic living environment, with as much light and clean air and as little dust and bacteria as possible. Read more about this tour.

The Healthy House audio tour is available in Dutch and English. The tour can also be listened to online in these languages.

Virtual Reality

The greater part of the museum house, a national monument from the 1930s, is not accessible by wheelchair because of its staircases, narrow corridors and steps. People who use a wheelchair or who would rather not climb the stairs can enjoy a virtual tour of the house from the studio instead.

Documentation centre

In the documentation centre, set up in the former garage of the Sonneveld House, you can watch the documentary made during and about the restoration of the house in 2001. There are also screens showing photographs and drawings from the Sonneveld family archives and from the architects Brinkman and Van der Vlugt.
