Navy Museum 'Hidden Treasures'

It is a green oasis of rest and serenity. To show visitors the way, completely new signage has been installed, entirely in keeping with the atmosphere of the cemetery. Besides designing in the right atmosphere, customer friendliness was also important. The new range of information signs displays a clear intuitive wayfinding with attention to environment and visitor.

Not only museum visitors bus also invited guests are welcome to discover the Royal Navy during a diner or reception.

The Navy Museum’s collection consists of as many as 80,000 objects. A big part of this has been kept behind closed doors for future generations. The ‘Hidden treasures’ exhibition gives full attention to some objects preserved for years. Paintings, ship models, ship decorations, awards, ship bells, banners, sculptures and silverware colour the history of the Royal Navy from the 17th century to the present day.

With this new space, the Navy Museum is equipped to receive museum visitors, receptions and other gatherings.
