The National Rescue Museum is a wonderful museum located in the heart of Den Helder. We take pride in our large team of volunteers—individuals who have a deep love for the sea and the historical heritage of our naval city. Our team works tirelessly every day to share the story of lifesaving at sea with a wide audience.
