Adventurers beware! Join the Golden Age expedition to Treasure Island Boerhaave. Step back in time three hundred years and join us on an exciting voyage of discovery. What do you have to do as a doctor aboard a ship in the 17th century? You will learn what a real surgeon had in his cupboard. For example, an amputation saw! As a real scientist, you find strange animals and plants and do all kinds of experiments along the way. And of course a helmsman in the Golden Age does not have a GPS, he uses the stars and the sun! How then? Try it out in Treasure Island! The exciting hands-on exhibition is full of surprising adventures.
