A fortress town as a subject

The museum organisation describes the history of the fortress town as a core subject. Use the display to get your bearings in the town: which places are mentioned, and how are they connected in the explanations?

New questions about familiar places

The programme also mentions attention to colonial history and the history of slavery. See which sources and local points of reference are given for a subject like this. A walk or an exhibition can prompt you to look differently at a building or a street name.

From museum to walk

The museum offers town walks and group packages. Arrange these in advance if you want to combine them with the exhibition. A route outdoors has its own duration and organisation, separate from the museum’s opening hours.

Before you go

According to the museum, group packages must be booked at least two weeks in advance. Check the public holiday closures.
