The Old West Indie trade, the first mega corporation in the world, establised in 1602
Visit one of the largest trading ships of the United East Indië Company (VOC). It lies right in front of the Maritime Museum. Both are worth a visit.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, the Dutch set sail in ships like these, known as 'Dutch East Indiamen,' to the Far East (what we now call Asia). The journey took about eight months. The ship moored alongside the museum is an exact copy of the famous East Indiaman lost on her maiden voyage in 1749. The Amsterdam can rightly be called one of the most stunning pieces in the museum's collection. Experience the East Indiaman Amsterdam! Feel what life was like on board a real East Indiaman. Hoist cargo, scuttle through the hold, fire a cannon... try it all! Rinus the Rat is your friend and guide on board the Amsterdam and will accompany you through all the activities.
