Photo audio tour Audio Tour about Willemsoord

On the Willemsoord grounds, where the National Rescue Museum is located, you can also take an audio tour. Starting outside the museum, this tour explores the history of this site and its "residents": the many old ships docked here. Do you know who Willemsoord is named after? How many people have been rescued by the (still sailing) lifeboats of the Rescue Museum? Rescuer Mees will tell you all sorts of fun facts and tidbits. This audio tour costs only €2 and is available at the museum's reception or through our online ticket shop.

After payment, you'll receive instructions via email to download an app. This app allows you to listen to the audio tour on your own mobile phone.

Activities in School Holidays

During school holidays, we have plenty of extra activities. For instance, you can learn knots from a real skipper, make your own Sou'wester hat, paint a lifeboat, or wander through the museum on an exciting treasure hunt. Will you be visiting with your father, mother, brother, or sister?

Check the schedule for the upcoming school holidays.
