Tips from locals
A visit to Pampus starts on the boat! In about 25 minutes you sail over the IJmeer to the Fort Island. 2 ferry services leave for the island, one from Muiden and one from Amsterdam IJburg. Upon arrival you will be received by the fortwachter. Imagine how soldiers lived and worked here long ago day in and day out. The dining rooms, bedrooms and workspaces of a century ago have been brought back to life with multimedia. Anyone who visits Pampus will think back in time. Feel the power of the fortress as you walk through the empty spaces of that time. Imagine how it must have been. Listen to the sounds and the stories. Scavenger hunts, games, for young and old!
