Huisje Nys-Vermoote / Jommekeshuis (guided tour)

Get to know the history of Koksijde on the basis of typical old postcards and authentic old postcards and authentic drawings of Jef Nys and his granddaughter. The cottage itself is furnished with authentic furniture of Karel Loppens (1875-1962). This local historian did groundbreaking work (among other things in the context of the Ten Duinen abbey site, near Huisje Nys-Vermoote).\n\nIn this typical fisherman's cottage you discover how the authentic fishing population lived here. How did they deal with the pros and cons of their simple homes? Warmth, cold, wind and rain: how did the fishermen brave the elements and how did they integrate them into their lives? During a guided tour you will learn all about 'sustainability avant la lettre'.\n\nDutch-speaking guided tour
