Museum Harbour Zeeland - Zierikzee

Step back in time and discover Zierikzee's rich maritime history at Museum Harbour Zeeland. At two locations - a lively shipyard and a harbour full of authentic ships, an adventure for all ages awaits. Let experienced guides take you past the technical marvels and ingenuity of old ships.

In the Old Harbour you will find the museum's fleet, where you can look around when the ships are not sailing. Here you will discover the maritime character of the port, with moorings for ships that temporarily dock. The volunteers love to tell you about old shipbuilding techniques and let you experience for yourself what it was like to make wooden pegs and drill a hole with an auger.

In the shipyard, admire an impressive collection of old ship engines. Don't miss the monthly demonstrations, where the engines come to life.

Visit between April and October and be surprised by the fascinating history of Museum Harbour Zeeland.
