  5. 4.5 Escape Room Vechtdal (6 reviews)
    - Geweldige escape room in super leuk en uniek decor!
    Spent < 1 hour Escape Games
    We hadden al een escape room gedaan thuis, maar toen we op zoek waren naar een "regenactiviteit" met 2 tieners op vakantie in de buurt, kwamen we bij deze activiteit uit. Het is een escape room op een boot, waarbij je moet proberen uit de boot te geraken voor hij zinkt. De setting is uniek. De opdrachten zijn niet gemakkelijk. De activiteit zelf duurt een uur, maar je moet er even vooraf zijn om gebrieft te worden. We vonden dit een super leuke en goed bedachte escape room. Een aanrader voor liefhebbers! See more..
  6. 4.5 Bostheater (4 reviews)
    - Open-air Theater in the Wood
    Theaters
    Bostheater image
    The name speaks itself (Bostheater = Woodtheater). A theater that is located in the wood, 'de Besthmenerberg'. This area had rich histories, one of them was the presence of Jiddu Krishnamurti, a South Indian Brahmin who was installed as Head of the Order of the Star (1927–1929), based at Ommen. Well, we were here for the free concert of two bands, Pert Near Sandstone (Minnesota) and The Hackensaw Boys (Virginia). It was a good place for concert, the sound was fine, the seats were a bit primitive, natural grass and dirt, but we could borrow cushions from the organization. The coin for the drink or snacks costs € 2,00. A very nice atmosphere. Big parking place in the camping area. It is recommended See more..

  9. 4.0 Brigittakerk of Ned.Herv.Kerk te Ommen (5 reviews)
    - Charming, rather complex church building
    Spent < 1 hour Historic Sites • Architectural Buildings • Churches & Cathedrals
    Brigittakerk of Ned.Herv.Kerk te Ommen image
    This late Gothic style church lies a bit higher than the rest of the city, as it is located on an old river dune. Parts of the ancient structure from before a destructive fire in 1624 are still visible in the foundation and lower parts of the main building. Instead of a tower the rebuilt 17th century church got a remarkable square clockhouse in front. Inside two clocks date from 1517. The present-day tower was added in 1857. The church was dedicated to Brigida, the Irish patron-saint of cattle, but the Dutch Reformed who took charge after 1587 do not encourage the worship of saints. Most people refer to the church as "de Hervormde Kerk". Overall a rather complex structure, but really charming. See more..
