Inside the Historic Farmhouse, several real dinosaur fossils are on display, including bones, teeth, eggs, etc. In addition it's a somewhat strange sight in the landscape of the park. Scattered throughout the park in the Dinopark section are replicas of various dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops, Velociraptor, Brachiosaurus and many others. Visitors can even participate in paleontological excavations.

Historyland - Fossils
Historyland, a unique historical theme park and museum in Hellevoetsluis. One with a high educational value. Many themes, from prehistory to the recent past that belong to history, are exhibited here. Mostly life-sized models or even real objects comprise the ever-growing collection. Often with an educational character in which you can even participate actively, such as participating in paleontological excavations or prospecting for gold, make this theme park particularly suitable as a learning environment. The park and a number of buildings offer enough subjects for a nice day with lots of fun but also an educational day.

While waiting for my wife to get through with her election service, I wandered around our small town, searching for shootable novelties.
These statues have been standing here for a while though, I'd assume, nevertheless I thought they made for an interesting subject.

Fossile est une œuvre en deux temps, il s’agit d’abord d’une spirale composée de piquets de bois brûlé. Cette empreinte dans le paysage vise à initier un dialogue primitif avec la région volcanique et à agiter notre imaginaire collectif et individuel sur des thématiques archaïques, environnementales et spirituelles. Dans un second temps, il s’agit d’un parcours accompagnant le visiteur au centre de la spirale, où un sol d’écorce de cèdre rouge vient habiller le cœur et contraste avec le noir carboné du bois. Ici, la relation essentielle entre l’homme et le paysage prédomine tant dans l’approche constructive que dans la signification.
En utilisant des gestes constructifs rudimentaires, l’œuvre converse avec le paysage et bâtit
un échange intemporel.
