It was the state prison in the Netherlands. And it is also a fortress in the Dutch Waterline.

It seems like opinions are getting harsher. But this is not new. In the 17th century in Holland, two groups stood diametrically opposed to each other as opposites. People no longer saw each other as fellow human beings, but only as the enemy. Political opponents were imprisoned at Slot Loevestein.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition &#8220;Opposites&#8221; shows what polarization is, how it can occur and what consequences it can have. What can we learn from history? When does having different opinions turn into hostility? And can we prevent this? By connecting the past and present, we try to answer this. You will be challenged to think about your own ideas. There is a children&#8217;s line with fun assignments and games to introduce the subject in an approachable way.[\/vc_column_text][vc_button button_color=&#8221;accent&#8221; size=&#8221;btn-link&#8221; icon_position=&#8221;right&#8221; icon=&#8221;fa fa-arrow-right2&#8243; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.slotloevestein.nl%2Ftegenpolen%2F|title:Tentoonstelling%20%22Monddood%22&#8243; button_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;115024&#8243;]Read more about &#8220;Opposites | differently connected[\/vc_button][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;196260&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;109264&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; media_ratio=&#8221;four-three&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;581744&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; el_class=&#8221;drie-kolom-lvstn&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;213844&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; back_color=&#8221;color-xsdn&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;208516&#8243; back_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;110267&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h6>For the whole family<\/h6>\n<h3>Play &amp; Explore<\/h3>\n<p>No statically furnished rooms, but you can explore the fortress and castle independently.
