A building with a function
When you enter, pay attention to the building too. Its history as a net warehouse and sail loft fits the subject of the museum. See how the explanation about the building relates to the objects now on display.
Work and life on board
Ships, river fishing and life on board are the subjects of the visit. Objects are supplemented by film, sound and interactive features. Alternate between these ways of looking; each can make a different aspect of the same work understandable.
A branch by the harbour
The museum belongs to Historisch Museum Den Briel, but has its own visitor address in Zwartewaal. Regular opening is limited to weekend afternoons from April to October. Check public holidays separately, even when they fall within the season.
Before you go
Go to Bernissedijk 24 in Zwartewaal and check the seasonal and public holiday opening.
