Our Stories
Contribute…
The history of Zandvoort is extensively explored through interactive collection management, organized walks through the old village center, and the heritage education program for primary schools. In the permanent exhibition The Life of Memories, the nostalgia of old Zandvoort can be rediscovered. Zandvoorts Museum would like to further enrich the history of Zandvoort with your assistance.
Our Stories
Write a story about a woman, man, family, community or about a place, an event that has meant something to Zandvoort and enrich the story of this coastal village. Perhaps your story is about the fishermen’s wives who mended the nets, the boarding house owners who received the first bathers, or the resistance fighters who risked their lives during the war. The form of the story is completely free: a poem, a letter, a short story or a personal memory.
All stories, if possible with an image, will be published here on the website and included in the collection about the history of Zandvoort!
Participate!
It would be great if you also participate to enrich the story of Zandvoort! The Zandvoorts Museum collects the stories, so that the people, the places and the events that have shaped Zandvoort become visible and audible.
All these stories become part of the museum collection.
Everyone can participate. The form of the story is completely free: write a short story, a poem, a letter or share a memory.
