Domein Bokrijk vzw Review

Unfortunately we could of course not enter the houses due to corona. Instead, they have an interactive exhibition about Bruegel throughout the park. Very nice set up when you also play the game. Initially designed for children, I think, but we (43, 38 and 17) had a great time with it! They enforce very well (yet friendly) on corona measures, even in the toilets!
Two years ago I was here too, we could go into the houses then. There were people who showed how it used to be and that was also great. The park is clean, the people are friendly and the entrance fee is fine too. It would be nice if there were also vegan options in the catering industry, but otherwise a well-kept park.

Was very beautiful and very quiet
In the past too and due to corona measures all houses were closed and there were no crafts etc.
So fairly quickly around but clean and well maintained park for walking
Corona safe everywhere

Beautiful history of Belgium, which can be seen lifelike in beautiful old houses from that time.

I can't give less stars, the lady at the entrance was downright rude.

Nice interactive walk about a painting by Breughel. Definitely worth the 5 entrance fee 5

Big, lots of old buildings and history, afternoon well spent...

Everything renewed way too much. Where are those old houses?
Lost charm

It is a beautiful park. However, I expected more animation. The covid19 rules don't make it easy.

I used to go there with my parents when I was a baby. . . It is always a pleasure to come back there for beautiful walks. . .

Go there at least once a year. And remains fascinating.

Beautiful outdoor museum where you can learn about the life of people in Belgium from 1600 onwards, there are workshops for the kids and a playground next to the museum.

Felt like I am back in time in typical Belgian village....

Was a super fun day. It is a very well-kept environment that allows a glimpse into the past. We spoke with great pleasure to the man in the farm who prepared the daily meal, the weaver, the pastor who came to read a letter to the farmer's wife (very good people keep their role), but the best was surely (certainly with our children aged 5 and 7, a visit to the school where you got a taste of teaching in 1914. My 5-year-old son immediately asked "I shouldn't come to school here, isn't it, Dad." Master Joseph played a starring role!

I love this place, original park from houses from our history, and very nice walking paths in a large nature environment, and nice place for a drink or lunch/maybe dinner

Nice park.diff museum for kids. Shame it's Dutch mainly - not many indications in other languages ( en at least if you really exclude French as a language

Great and beautiful park to visit with the whole family, v especially if you're interested in recent local history.

Been so often, but remains beautiful. Very unique.
The winter evenings are also fun to do

Quite expensive. There were not many actors present. Nice place to walk around old villages, though.

It's really nice in here, a lot of old and beautiful buildings. You can also take pictures with an old costume like in Volendam.

Bokrijk winter night review: you're basically being asked to pay admission for a carnival. That said, the fireworks were better than expected and the fire parade short but sweet. There is a fire show going on twice a day; but it's not worth waiting for - I've had the impression even I could make something more impressive than the flailings of an amateur pole dancer, a fake violist and someone waving a fire umbrella.

The Bokrijk Open Air Museum is open until 21 October, from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. Closed on Monday. The Arboretum, the walking and cycling routes and the open air playground are accessible free of charge all year round. You can go to the playground from 9 am. until 9 p.m. Prices Bokrijk Open Air Museum: From 13 years: Euro 12.50, Groups (From 15 paying people), 60 + and people with a disability: Euro 10.50, Children from 3-12 years: Euro 2.00, <3 year and subscribers: free, Parking, 1 turn: Euro 5.00, 5-turn card: Euro 10.00

Because of the beautiful well-kept hiking trails, beautiful views and beautifully restored houses, the nature and tranquility you will find there. It is a green lung within Limburg where you can recharge your battery the way you want

Very sad and animal unfriendly to find a large rabbit in one of the farms in the dark. All alone. In a small loft. Hopefully it will get a friend and another loft. This ruins the experience of the park.

Even corona time worth a visit. Slightly fewer places open than normal

Unfortunately, only half of them currently visit because of the corona measures

Due to corona there was some confusion, but our visit to the museum was generally pleasant.

Family day trip. With a huge playground for todlers and kids up to 12.

Nice old houses in a nice countryside setup. Refreshing!

Very nice place for a walk. The gardens and the paths are very well maintained.

Very pleasant, beautifully maintained! Fantastic nature!

Nostalgie, door Corona kan je enkel een uitgestippeld parcours volgen, alle huisjes zijn dicht maar in enkele is er een Breugel tentoonstelling. Prachtig arboretum buiten het museum. Koetshuis aan ingang en Poorthuis op het domein zijn open

Child friendly, fun Breugel activity, Corona-proof!

Great to visit with children during the "kattenkwaad"event. Lots of fun activities in a gorgeous setting

Fine formula. Free entrance to the open air museum, route mapped out.

It's a fun way to learn about the way we lived in the past, to see where we come from and to see what an amazing craftsmanship human kind has. I enjoyed my day trip over there.

Great experience. We have been twice in this Open Air Museum. It has nice paths for walking, interesting buildings, and you see how people used to work. There are also many games and some activities for kids. We would have liked that the cafes had a bit more variety of food and more affordable prices.

Very nice to walk through the park and soak up some information from an earlier era. All craft functions are not present and many electronic 'activities' have been added.

Prachtige omgeving, ideaal om te wandelen en een lekkere brasserie!

Mooie en rustige wandeling gemaakt in het openluchtmuseum in Bokrijk.

Huge open-air museum near Hasselt. Brings historic buildings from all over Belgium together in a nice forest. In weekends and summer there are lots of demonstrations of old trades, games and foodpreparation. My favourite part is the old-Antwerp bar with Belgium beers. Best alcohol-related dark beer I've ever tasted.

Easy to spend a full day here.

Good but had to wait too long for the drink first clear table mzken then we ordered and he said I can do that but will send another one and he first helped other people but we were there first one then another had to come again to get it to receive money very badly arranged never heard anything like this

Beautiful park! Great for family fun activities or a nice quiet picnic!

Beautiful walking route ... Historical information, few open houses ... Game to bring the route to life (diamonds to be found in 10 places) for young and old! We spent 3 hours and we did not see the time spent ... Rem the information is in Dutch and English
The staff are lovely the whole way

Free with a museum pass, and parking in front of the entrance top.
kindly receive by lady.
Everything well marked with posts / arrows provided.
Beautifully restored buildings
impressive open-air museum where you can relax, presented / displayed with a lot of passion and with an eye for detail.
Very varied museum, nicely done
And afterwards a snack or coffee in the beautifully restored farm

Ideal starting point for a bike ride towards the Teut.

Interactive game was very nice. Old games supply some fresh experience and add new look to the historical days

Fun for the children (and the parents), quiet, friendly ... A pity that little explanation was given about the houses and the domain itself and that everything revolved almost exclusively around Brueghel.

Wonderful nature. We found it somewhat lacking in explanation though. The info panels do tell a story but not so much about the daily life. There were little visitors so maybe the museum relies more on information provided by the actors and guides but there weren't a lot of them available this early on the season. Still a cheap museum of course for what you get. The sixties exhibit was a cool extra.

Enter the time capsule and go back in time. Authentic buildings, tools, ...

A great family day - lovely landscape, interesting stories and lots of history. We were 2 families with little kids and had a great time. It is perfect for a clear day.

Museum and nature are beautiful, but there is no signage!

Very beautiful environment! Definitely worth a visit. Staff is SUPER friendly !!! Due to the corona measures, the open air museum and parking were free. The open air museum and the surrounding area is immaculate! The arboretum is also worth a detour. Beautiful and well maintained.

Rather big Park with constructed largely historically accurate buildings. Has nice maintained nature for just walking, games for kids and non-boring adults. Much evolved and renovated since my last childhood visit.

Lovely place with lovely cycling road through water

Nice location for walking. Small houses as it used to be. Very pleasant now with so few people.

Nice and cosy open air museum with many old houses and farms of the 19th century

Peace! Nicely restored. Great game for children. We really enjoyed it!

Landscape park with old houses, animals, a lot of activities for children. Highly recommend

Nice outdoor place, expensieve food and drinks and no cash withdrawn possible in the middel of nowhere

Beautiful, exactly also just a lot of renovation exactly behind what makes it just a little too clean. Corona only walking area had a nice impression of the beautiful domain! Nice ice cream also eaten made by a local association with local products, even without lactose on offer.

Been here several times, a new experience each time. Super cool, highly recommended for young and old.

Great for walking and to get a taste of the museum. Currently free by Corona but no house is open ... Later more ...
