Historical Museum

6 miles from Tuscany Residence Aruba

Located at Fort Zoutman

Once inside Fort Zoutman, you’re bound to feel the history seeping through the walls while enjoying the historic collection of documents and developments from the past.

The Fort Zoutman Historical Museum is where many of our guests get their first exposures to Aruba’s past. Each Tuesday night everyone is invited to Fort Zoutman for our island’s Welcome Party or as we call it, the Bon Bini Festival from 6:30 – 8:30 pm, celebrating the island’s culture and history.

The fort, named after Dutch Rear Admiral Johan Arnold Zoutman who never stepped foot on Aruba but defeated the English in the North Sea, was completed in 1798 after a 2-year construction process.
