Museum Het Bolwerk

The Bolwerk Museum in IJzendijke is the premier information center on the Dutch-Spanish Lines, the impressive defensive works from the Eighty Years’ War that are still visible in the landscape of Zeeuws-Vlaanderen. The museum tells the story of fortified towns, forts, and lines, and how they defined the border between the Netherlands and Belgium. In this interactive museum, you’ll discover how soldiers and civilians survived in a landscape that was constantly at war.
