Real farmers are hard to find in this oldd Drentish Esdorp. For twenty years or so, Orvelte has been a museum village which transports visitors back in time to a rural past. Stroll past rows of old Saxon farms and on through seven centuries of life and toil on the land. In this museum village, you can find the Bruntingerhof and workshops like the village smithy and the clogmaker's. Esdorp ("ash village") is derived from the word Es (ash): a collection of little strip-like fields surrounded by an impressive hedge.
