Rotterdam’s toughest museum
Located in the historic heart of Rotterdam, on the Wijnhaven and just a stone’s throw from the Old Harbour, the Marines Museum tells the story of the Dutch Marine Corps—from its foundation in 1665 to the missions of today.
Authentic uniforms, weapons, vehicles and personal stories bring the lives and work of marines vividly to life. Through interactive displays, adventurous activities and the Marines on Mission experience, you can discover what it takes to work together under challenging conditions. The Marines Museum is an exciting destination for enthusiasts, families and groups. It is located right in the heart of Rotterdam, with the Maas river and the city’s rich maritime history just around the corner.
