A shipbuilding project
The former offering centred on building a replica of the ship of the line Delft and on a learning and work environment. That combination explains why old descriptions mention both a ship and a workshop.
A vanished destination
The replica is no longer at the Rotterdam location. A mention of activities elsewhere does not mean that the former museum has returned or is receiving visitors again.
Recognising outdated information
Photos and descriptions of the shipyard may continue to circulate online. Bear in mind the difference between documentation of the project and a current invitation to visit.
Before you go
There is no museum timetable for De Delft in Rotterdam. A different use of the former address or website does not give access to the former ship museum.
