Torenmuseum climbs from regional story to view

In the medieval tower of Goedereede, agriculture, fishing and shipping sit alongside a climb that reveals the surrounding landscape.

The tower pushes you upwards

During the climb, notice the stairs, wall openings and floors. Ask which parts of the building belong to different phases and which were added for the museum.

Land and water in the collection

Objects relating to agriculture, fishing and seafaring show different ways of making a living. Compare traces of use and scale without guessing their age.

The view as a map

At the top you can connect the coast, village and routes with the regional display. Use landmarks to understand why this place gained significance.

Before you go

In September and October 2026 open on Saturday 13:30–16:30. Check the current calendar for later seasons. The climb involves stairs and is not wheelchair accessible.
