Visit The National Maritime Museum to learn about the interesting naval history of the Netherlands. Enjoy the interactive and educational exhibitions, and observe many artefacts associated with shipping and sailing, such as world maps, weapons and paintings.
Outside the museum you can climb aboard three mighty ships. The SS Christiaan Brunings is an icebreaker and a real powerhouse with an impressive engine room! See the beautiful Royal Barge which was built in 1818 for the royal family. And the real star is the replica of the 18th-century East Indiaman ship, called “Amsterdam”. Step aboard and feel what life was like for the sailors.
