The Flood Museum is in the four caissons used for closing the last hole in the dyke, which arose during the floods of 1953. Footage give an impression of the rescue, relief and reconstruction with the resources of that time. Dozens of newspapers give an impression of the disaster, as the photo folder, where 12,500 photos are housed. Relief supplies, but also the machinery for the restore works are shown. On a large model are the numerous dyke breaches stated.

The Zuidhavenpoort dates from the 13th century and is more impressive then the Noorderhavenpoort. It is a variant of the Nobel Gate, but much more sober constructed. The building has three floors, accessible via a staircase turret placed against the building.
North port gate
The Noordhavenpoort originally dates from the 14th century. The gate looks a lot less tough than the opposite gate. In 1559 the gate got its current ornamental facades on the city side.
The Catholic community was allowed to build a new church under restriction that it did not look like a church from the outside. The church was first used in 1768. The church was renovated in 1842 and got a new front finally showing that it was not just a house but a church. The little tower dates from 1931.
