Huis van Hilde (Hilde's House) is the archaeology information centre and repository of the Dutch province of Noord-Holland (North Holland), which was opened in Castricum in early 2015. It was named after a model and facial reconstruction of a skeletal find from the 4th century that came to be known as Hilde (of Castricum). (pictured)
The centre is equipped with space for a central, permanent exhibition with a 1000 finds dating from the Neanderthal period onwards. Show pieces are two medieval sarcophagi found in Hem and Etersheim, three historical canoes and 14 models of humans, based on skeletal finds. The centre also has floor space reserved for temporary exhibitions.
