Housed in a monumental building in the centre of the city, the Stedelijk Museum documents the history of Coevorden. It features several notable items, including a maquette of Coevorden's defensive works, as well as the iron helmet worn by Cal von Rabenhaupt, who managed to win the city from Spanish hands within an hour on December 30th, 1672.

The museum itself is named after two giants, said to roam the Ellertsveld, where the museum is located, some four hundred years ago.
