    Hiking

    The museum opened in 1963. It is named after Pieter Cornelis Sorgdrager, who had the captain's house built in 1751. The exhibition shows everyday objects, furniture and folk art from the 18th century and provides information about the living conditions on the island at that time, about shipping and whaling, which helped many islanders to achieve a certain level of prosperity. In the meantime, the museum has been expanded to include the neighboring farmhouse.

    Hiking

    An ideal place in bad weather to watch old Ameland with films about breakneck whaling. Dutch blue and white motif tiles can be seen in the Commandeurshuis, basement, living room and bedroom with beds in the closet, old furniture and much more.

    Cultural History Museum "Sorgdrager"

    If, like the Amelanders, you have lived in isolation on an island for centuries, you develop your own culture.
    In and around the "Sorgdrager" cultural history museum you can discover exactly what that means and how the people of Ameland have lived together over the centuries.


    Experience Ameland's history in the "Sorgdragershuuske" built in 1751, a commander's dwelling built by Pieter Cornelis Sorgdrager….
