Visserijmuseum Breskens

The Breskens Fishing Museum immerses you in the world of fishermen. Located in the heart of the fishing harbor, the museum tells the honest and often rugged story of the sea, the catch, and the people of the fleet. From the history of herring fishing to the modern fish auction and the dangers of the Westerschelde, here you’ll experience the maritime pride of “Bresjes.” A highlight for many is the collection of fossils—including shark teeth and mammoth bones—that fishermen have dredged up from the North Sea.
