Juttersmuseum Callantsoog: beach finds and imagination

The Juttersmuseum (beachcombers’ museum) near Callantsoog combines beach finds with interactive art. The museum is currently closed for the off-season and announces its next opening in 2027.

What the coast leaves behind

Beachcombing finds prompt questions about origin and use. An object on the beach does not tell its story by itself. On a future visit, look at what explanation is given and what is known, or uncertain, about a find.

Art among the finds

Interactive works add a different layer from the collected beach material. The attraction presented as a ‘baby mermaid’ also belongs to the museum’s world of imagination, not to an established animal species. Keep that distinction in mind as you look.

Waiting for the new season

The announced period runs from 27 March to 5 September 2027, mainly at weekends. The holidays have extra days. Check that calendar again as soon as you choose a specific date; old hours for 2026 are not current.

Before you go

The museum is closed until the 2027 season; check the new calendar before planning.
