Ferdinand Domela Nieuwenhuis

We are glad to announce the opening of the website of the F. Domela Nieuwenhuis Museum at Heerenveen. This Museum is dedicated to one of the founding fathers of Dutch Socialism and Anarchism. It opened its gates in 1925 in Amsterdam. After having been hosted by the International Institute for Social History, among others, it now is lodged in the Willem van Haren-Museum at Heerenveen. In a completely new presentation personal belongings and other artefacts inform the visitor about Domela Nieuwenhuis and the movements he was part of. The new website makes the Museum complete.
