From the owner: Het Marinemuseum laat bezoekers het verleden en het heden van de Nederlandse marine ervaren…read more Belangrijk onderdeel van het museum zijn de 3 museumschepen: de onderzeeboot Tonijn, het ramschip Schorpioen en de mijnenveger Abraham Crijnssen. Aan boord van de museumschepen is de geschiedenis van elk schip zichtbaar gemaakt. Aan boord vertellen oud-bemanningsleden prachtige verhalen. In de gebouwen van het Marinemuseum aan de wal zijn vaste en wisselende tentoonstellingen over de geschiedenis van de marine te zien. Een van de permanente tentoonstellingen is Schip en werf. Deze tentoonstelling is volledig gewijd aan techniek. Het brughuis De Ruyter is een van de nieuwste attracties van het museum. Hier ervaart het publiek de windkracht van de 3D-radar en krijgt op de brug een kijkje in het optreden van de Zeestrijdkrachten anno 2013. Jong en oud gaat zelf aan het werk in de interactieve expositie Schip en Werf waar men kan klinken, lassen, touwknopen, lading hijsen of het geschut bedienen. In het Marinemuseum zijn vaste en tijdelijke exposities te zien, zowel in gebouwen aan de wal als aan boord van de museumschepen. De collectie van het Marinemuseum is toegespitst op het cultuur-historisch erfgoed van de Nederlandse marine.

One of my favorite museums during my trip to the greater Amsterdam area!…read more The indoor museum exhibits were well maintained, laid out well, and had a good flow. The workers there were friendly and helpful. The outside section was huge! It's essentially an outdoor village that you can explore. There are farm animals like chickens, goats, and sheep wandering about. There are people working inside the village doing things like basketweaving, making fishing nets, etc so you can get a good idea of what life was like back then. I wish I had more time to explore. You could honestly spend the entire day here. Admission also includes a ferry ride to and from the Metro station. Check it out, it's worth a day trip from Amsterdam!

Excellent museum that consists of both the indoor portion and an outdoor area that consists of…read morehistorical buildings from a Zuiderzee village. I love that there are actual employees at many of the buildings within the village working on crafts from the time period. It felt really authentic and is great for all ages. There is also a free ferry provided by the museum that takes you directly from the train station to the village. The indoor exhibits are very engaging as well, flows well, and have a lot of interactive and colorful displays that make it perfect for kids to enjoy as well. Overall a visit to Zuiderzeemuseum is an excellent value and highly recommended if you're in the Netherlands.
