Museum · half day · A village of houses, workshops and boats moved from all over the Zuiderzee, open from late March to October, and the Treasure House all year.

Until 1932, when the Afsluitdijk closed it off, the Zuiderzee was an inland sea with fishing villages, shipyards and harbours. The Zuiderzeemuseum tells that life, and does so on a grand scale: in the open-air village, streets, canals and a harbour have been rebuilt with houses, shops, workshops and boats brought from all along the coast, where you can see, hear, smell and try the life of the time. Opposite, in the Treasure House, the objects and exhibitions of the collection are kept.
