Mariniersmuseum: missions, training and tradition

The Mariniersmuseum on the Wijnhaven covers the Korps Mariniers (Netherlands Marine Corps) through exhibitions on missions, training and tradition. Interactive elements also give families a way into the subject.

Plan your visit ↗

Understanding a task

See which activities the display describes and which explanation goes with them. The difference between training, deployment and looking back can help you understand the various parts of the museum.

Exploring interactively

Hands-on elements can focus attention on a specific action or situation. Read the context as well, so that an activity also adds something to the story being told.

Stories side by side

Military history encompasses different kinds of experience. Follow the perspectives the exhibition offers and take time for the explanations before drawing conclusions from any one part.

Before you go

Check the Monday opening during holidays and the public holiday closures. Ask in advance about aids, accessible routes and group conditions; a regular ticket does not automatically include every activity.
