The Museumhaven Willemsoord Foundation (SMW) aims to develop the Museumhaven Willemsoord into a fully-fledged, authentic complex where historic ships are moored, (if necessary) restored to their original state, where maritime crafts are carried out, and where the whole is operated as a tourist attraction, to showcase the maritime identity of Willemsoord and Den Helder. The maritime-historical character of Willemsoord is largely provided by the “decoration” with about 30 to 50 nautical monuments, and the maritime-artisan activity that is necessary to get and keep the ships in good condition. To achieve that goal, not only attractive financial conditions are needed, but also suitable facilities to get and keep the ships in good condition, such as workshops, and dock and slipway facilities. The SMW, supported for many executive, operational activities by the Nautical Monuments Foundation (SNM), makes every effort to make the facilities and conditions under which nautical monuments can be located in Willemsoord so attractive that Willemsoord is an attractive option for the owners of This type of ship is a popular mooring spot.

De Knorhanen
Boerenkapel de ‘Knorhanen’ is ontstaan in 1961 uit leden van Harmonie “Winnubst”. Er werd destijds een carnavalsvereniging opgericht en daar hoorde natuurlijk een boerenkapel bij. De carnavalsvereniging ontstond uit leden van voetbalclub WGW en muziekvereniging Winnubst dus een boerenkapel was zo voorhanden. Een naam voor de carnavalsvereniging werd gauw gevonden: CV de ‘Krabbetukkers’ en de naam ‘Knorhanen’ paste daar mooi bij. Een knorhaan is één van de weinige vissen die geluid maakt (dat doet hij als er gevaar dreigt, maar de kapel doet dat alleen als de gezelligheid dreigt).

Lightship Texel
Since 1996, the museum lightship Texel No. 10 has been an absolute eye-catcher in Museum Harbor Willemsoord on the Oude Rijkswerf Willemsoord in Den Helder. What is special is that the now beautifully restored ship is moored a stone's throw from the slipway where she was launched in 1951. After this, the lightship would be a reliable beacon in the sea off the Dutch coast for forty years. It now forms a shining centerpiece of a special museum ships collection. Lightship Texel is open to the public, check the website for current opening times.
