The fisherman's house (Gil et Jo) (guided tour)

Discover the history of Koksijde through typical old postcards and authentic drawings by Jef Nys and his granddaughter. The house itself has been furnished with authentic furniture by Karel Loppens (1875-1962). This folklorist did pioneering work in the context of locating the site of the abbey of Ten Duinen near Huisje Nys-Vermoote. In this typical fisherman's house, you will discover how the authentic fishermen of Koksijde lived. How did they manage the advantages and disadvantages of their simple house? Heat, cold, wind, and rain: how did the fishermen face the elements and how did they integrate them into their lives? During a guided tour, you will learn all about "sustainability before the term existed".\n\nGuided tour in French
