A find with a provenance
Choose one washed-up object and read where and when it was found. Wear from the sea tells a different story from its original function.
Craft in motion
Demonstrations show skills connected with ship and island. Follow tools, materials and actions, and ask which traditions are still practised.
The season on Texel
Open daily in summer; in winter Monday is dropped. Closed on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, and dogs are only allowed as assistance dogs.
Before you go
April–October daily 10.00–17.00; November–March Tuesday–Sunday. Check the winter public holidays before the crossing.
