Zeeuws Museum

A provincial museum in a former abbey, known for its large 16th-century tapestries and its collection of traditional Zeeland costumes and headdresses.

The museum displays a set of tapestries woven in the 1590s for the States of Zeeland, depicting Zeeland's naval victories during the Eighty Years' War. They are the museum's crown jewels. There is also a rich collection of traditional Zeeland costumes, gold and silver headdresses and everyday objects, presented in a contemporary display design. Admission is about 15 euros, or free with a Museumkaart. It shares a site with the abbey square and can be visited together with the Lange Jan tower.
