A zoo specialising in monkeys and great apes. Some of the species are free to roam amongst the visitors, and the design of the park is renowned for its excellent animal habitats.
A popular family theme park. Great for a day out with the children.
Though the Spainkbos itself is a very minor and unremarkable park, it houses a set of four burial mounds dating back to the Neolithic and Bronze Age. The Veluwe as a whole is home to several hundreds of such graves.
The Netherlands' fifth-largest theatre, home to theatre as well as musicals, cabaret and ballet.
Museum, archive and library of Apeldoorn.
For Architecture/urban enthusiasts, the original Structuralist "Centraal Beheer" building by Herman Herzberger is a must. Just a little further down the road, a subsequent project of his has been realised ("De witte wolken"), and may be interesting for comparison. Yet further still, and slightly to the north, the large "Walterboschcomplex" tax offices (by acclaimed architects Neutelings-Riedijk) can be viewed, representing some of the Netherlands' finest modern office architecture. As of 2022 though, the building sits very much derelict and neglected.
