The former arsenal of the Dutch Navy (built in 1656) is now over three hundred years old and is called the National Naval Depot, which is home to the Netherlands Maritime Museum (also known as the Scheevpaart museum). This is one of the largest maritime collections in the entire world. Like most categorically specific museum, this museum caters to those interested in learning about the maritime history of the Netherlands. Art, artifacts, maps, naval instruments, and other sea-faring objects fill the massive museum. Exhibits tell the visitors of Dutch explorers and the discovery of the world. Extravagant replicas of ancient ships tell the history of exploration and trade.

The replication of one of the first VOC ships (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie or the United East Indies Company) is one of the favorite attractions. The museum allows people to take limited tours through the massive ships. The “Dutch East Indiaman Amsterdam” replica (the Dutch equivalent of the Titanic) has special events that include a re-enactment of the maintenance and daily life on board. This ship was huge and elaborate. Unfortunately it sank off the shore of England on its first voyage. Ocean lovers, children, and adults alike will find this museum to be quite enjoyable.
