Historisch Museum Den Briel

The Den Briel Historical Museum tells the compelling story of the Eighty Years’ War and the capture of Den Briel by the Watergeuzen. Housed in the former city hall and the old city jail, the museum brings the history of April 1 to life. Here, you’ll discover not only how Brielle became the first city to free itself from Spanish rule, but also how the city developed into an important fortress and port city.
