Welcome to the Museumfabriek’s audio tour,
“Los Hoes: Farm Life in Twente.” Today, you’ll take a trip back in time.
Imagine this: you’re a farmer in Twente, long ago.
Where do you live, what do you eat, and what does your farm look like?
You’ll hear and see all that on this tour.

You can follow the tour by moving on to the next listening point (the arrow in the upper right corner of your screen). You can also select a listening point by clicking on a numbered red dot on the map above. The tour takes a little over 20 minutes.

Sometimes you can get a little more information about a topic, such as additional photos or short videos. If you’d like to do that, you can click the “More Info” button that appears in the middle of the right side of your screen. Of course, this will make the tour a little longer.

You can also choose your own order (and length) by selecting the attractions on the map that interest you the most.

You can listen to the text (preferably with headphones), or simply read it on your screen. Click the help button (?) for an explanation of the buttons. Click the right arrow to go to the first listening point.

Have fun.
