The skûtsjemuseum focuses on the lives of past generations of skûtsj skippers.

Old crafts from shipbuilding such as blacksmithing and sailmaking are featured. Hundreds of skûtsjes parts and tools are attractively displayed. In a recreated deckhouse, get a taste of the old bargee’s life. You smell tan and tar. You will experience the cramped space on board around 1900, when skûtsjes under sail carried daily loads of peat, terpmudder, manure or sand. You will discover the hard existence of hard work, sometimes poverty and often the joy of a free life, with wind and water. At the dock is a unique little ship, a replica of a wooden skûtsje from 1861.

At the Skûtsjemuseum, you can use our AUDIOTOUR(https://mobiel.skutsjemuseum.nl/) for free. You must have your own smartphone or iphone.
