Description | From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: The Maritime Museum Rotterdam is a maritime museum in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Dedicated to naval history, it was founded in 1873 by Prince Henry of the Netherlands. Next to the Maritime Museum lies the open-air Harbour Museum, of which one of the major attractions was the 19th-century ironclad ram ship HNLMS Buffel, which was moored outside of the museum. The ship was moved to Hellevoetsluis in 2013 (due to cost cuts) where it will be exploited by the Stichting Museumschip de Buffel to preserve this ship for the generations to come. The Harbour Museum includes the red cast iron Low Light of the Hook of Holland, which formerly stood at the entrance to the Nieuwe Waterweg (New Waterway). n the Maritime Museum Rotterdam, you can discover the enormous effect that shipping has on our daily lives. Go on a journey with us through the maritime past and present in modern exhibitions for adventurers large and small. Listen to the stories, admire the prize exhibits from our leading collection or join in some of the numerous activities. The museum is in one of the oldest and largest museum harbours of the Netherlands, where you can visit historic vessels and cranes and experience how the world's leading port of Rotterdam began at this spot. |
