The starting point for visitors of the Nacht van het Zilver (Night of Silver) will be the Town Hall, dating back to 1450. In the so called "Turfkelder" in the basement you will be received with coffee or tea. You can get acquainted with the Silvermuseum (later to be visited) and students of the "Vakschool" will demonstrate their skills in goldsmithing. When you then climb the staircase of the Town Hall you end up in the Council Chamber, which the mayor has kindly offered as an exhibition place for Dutch silversmiths to show some of their work. He will be hosting the occasion himself. You are welcome from 17.30 onwards.
Between 18.00 and 22.00 hours guides will accompany the visitors from there along a route with twenty locations of great diversity, meanwhile telling about the rich history of the Silver town. You can stay at a location for as long as you like and depart with the next guide who comes along. The Nacht van het Zilver ends at 24.00 hours.
Studio 925 warmly invites you to visit the gallery.
