Stoomzeesleepboot Furie: looking inside a tug

The steam ocean-going tug Furie is moored on the Stadhuiskade in Maassluis. If you know the ship from the television series Hollands Glorie, you can look at the real boat up close here.

Plan your visit ↗

From outside to inside

Start with the shape of the ship from the quay. On board, your gaze shifts to the spaces where the work took place. That way you can link an overall impression to smaller details, without needing to know everything about ship technology straight away.

Wheelhouse and engine room

The wheelhouse and engine room are among the parts that can be viewed. Look at them as spaces with different functions. When you visit, ask which areas are accessible and what explanations are available; the visitor route follows what is possible on board.

Fixed visiting days

No appointment is needed for a regular visit on Wednesday afternoon or Saturday. Groups can also discuss options outside those hours. If you have difficulty with stairs or thresholds, ask in advance whether the route is manageable for you.

Before you go

Check the current opening times and mooring location. Discuss accessibility in advance if stairs are an obstacle.
