Exhibition 'Rescuers at see' in Maritime Museum Zeeland

An Ode to the Rescuers in Zeeland
The exhibition features new work by two top photographers. Jeroen Hofman captured rescue stations and operations in Zeeland from great heights with dizzying precision. Robin de Puy portrayed Zeeland’s volunteers up close and personal, such as Corrie van der Haven, the first-ever woman at the KNRM, now 87 years old.

Impressive
Ship models, rescue equipment, and photographs immerse you in the fleet and rescue operations of our region. Discover gripping stories like the rescue of the Doris in 1907 and the Herald of Free Enterprise in 1987.

Wrap up your visit with a short quiz: which life jacket would you grab for your water sport activity?
