Batavia

An adventure of discovery in Lelystad. New land, but rich in history! Together the Batavia Yard, RACM Lelystad and Nieuw Land Heritage Centre form Batavia Stad Musea. Here, you will see amazing images of maritime history, ship wrecks and the reclaiming of the polder. The museums are within walking distance of each other.

 

Nieuw Land

Nieuw Land wants to introduce visitors to the history of Flevoland. Through fascinating presentations and exhibitions, you can learn about the neolithic Swifterbant Culture inhabitants of the marsh lands, past the medieval lords of Kuinre, the fishermen and island dwellers through to stories about the land reclamation and pioneers of the new land. You can also admire seven magnificent model ships from the collection of the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam. And there is much more to enjoy at Nieuw Land!

Bataviawerf

The Batavia Wharf is known throughout the world because of the reconstruction of the VOC(Golden Age) vessel Batavia. Now they are building the ship De Zeven Provinciën: a new ship for Michiel de Ruyter. By building true-to-life replicas, they bring history back to life, but there is more… At the ship yard and from the quay you can see the shipwrights at close quarters, working on impressive oaken tree trunks on workdays. Also visit the exhibition and have a guide show you around!

RACM Lelystad

Do you want to know more about nautical and sub-aquatic archaeology? Then RACM Lelystad is the place to be! The RACM is home to the largest nautical archaeological depot of the Netherlands. More than 30,000 artifacts are shown, all taken from ships. There are even complete ship wrecks: from a Roman vessel to a regular barge service vessel that was dug up in the centre of Lelystad. In the RACM building for nautical archaeology, you can witness the entire ship conservation process. Specialists will be at work while you visit. You will learn how the care for monuments of nautical archaeology works.
