Bizarium

Bizarium is a museum full of weird inventions. A museum of brilliant inventors and their boundless imagination, their technical ingenuity and above all immense passion. Bizarium inspires and surprises with genius, scientific and wacky inventions. Think of a flying bicycle, a walking submarine, a hair helmet, a swimming umbrella, as well as bizarre idees from geniuses like Leonardo da Vinci, Athanasius Kircher and Nikola Tesla.

We visited this museum on the last day from our 3 weeks exploring the Netherlands instead of Vietnam. Last week we stayed in Renesse and this is a must see when you are in the area.

Stadhuismuseum Zierikzee

Stadhuismuseum conveys the story of the historic city of Zierikzee and her surroundings. The museum got her name from the building it is housed in, the former city hall. 'Stadhuis' being the Dutch word for city hall. The city Zierikzee, which experienced its heyday in the middelares, was shaped largely during this period. The houses, buildings and even our monumental building take you back in time. The architecture, the modern collection and the possibility to learn more about life in Zierikzee and the surrounding region all contribute to the experience. Visit Stadhuismuseum Zierikzee and travel through the story of Zierikzee. A day trip to Zierikzee is not compleet without a visit to the Stadhuismuseum.

Schoolmuseum Schooltijd

Small but nice museum that shows hundreds of objects used by childeren at (mainly) primary school from mid 1800.Schooldesks, books, writing means, letter boxes, abacuses, numerous wall maps and wall pictures showing hystory, religion, biology, and much more.Also playing toys, used by boys and girls are to be seen here.A lot of nostalgia for the elderly and a discovery for the childeren.

Liberation Museum Zeeland

The Bevrijdingsmuseum (Liberation Museum) in Zeeland shows the eventful history of Zeeland during World War II. The museum has a particular focus on the 'Battle of the Scheldt'. Until now, there has been too little awareness and recognition, both nationally and internationally, of the importance of this battle. The largely forgotten Battle of the Scheldt was the longest and fiercest battle on Dutch territory. What was at stake was the opening-up of the port of Antwerp to shipping. This would make it possible to provide the Allied war effort with a crucial supply line and allow the stalled offensive in Western Europe to starting moving again. The outcome of this crucial operation was directly decisive for the further course of the Second World War in Western Europe. The museum also pays tribute to the Zeeland Battalion. This consisted largely of volunteers who, after the liberation of Zeeland, wanted to join in the fight for the liberation of the Netherlands and Western Europe. After World War II, however, the battalion was sent to the Dutch East Indies. From 2017, visitors can also see the new 3-hectare Bevrijdingspark (Liberation Park) in Zeeland. The concept of the Liberation Park is unique. Nowhere in Western Europe is there a similar layout. Set amongst the characteristic Zeeland elements of water, beach and dikes, the park illustrates the period of the 1939-1945 war and the Battle of the Scheldt in particular. The unique and preserved noodkerk (emergency church) of Ellewoutsdijk was reconstructed and rebuilt in the park. This emergency church, after the destruction of the original church by a bombardment, was constructed from so-called Nissen huts. Another unique feature is the Stiltebos (silent wood), a place where there is room for contemplation and reflection. In addition, the Liberation Park features bunkers, a bailey bridge, roadblocks, a Sherman tank and so on.
