Summary

As a guide, you ensure that visitors get to know the stories behind the beautiful and unique collection of Amerongen Castle.

Detailed description

Thanks to you as a guide, visitors can feel life in this castle through the ages with the history and anecdotes you tell. In shifts of 2.5 - 3 hours you change rooms every half hour. Each room has its own stories that you tell in a proactive and dynamic way, according to the needs of the visitors. In the meantime, you pay attention to the safety of the collection and the visitor.

What do we ask:

  • you are available for a fixed day/part of the day during the weekend; other days in consultation
  • are you more available? Then you can indicate this and make yourself available on call
  • you can make good and pleasant contact, speak clearly and are able to climb stairs

You will hear further details at an introduction afternoon on Sunday 19 March at 2.30 pm.

What we offer:

  • work in a beautiful environment
  • enthusiastic volunteer group
  • introduction afternoon and training
  • participation in field trips and lectures
  • four times a year a seasonal drink
  • discount in the castle shop
  • a lot of fun

Time commitment:

Because routine and experience are of great importance, we ask for a minimum commitment of one part of the day per week. Of course more is always possible. We are now mainly looking for guides for weekends, but that can expand to weekdays.

Enthusiastic?

Go to our website, look at news and sign up for the non-binding introduction afternoon on Sunday 19 March 2023 or during an introduction by appointment.
