Seen across the water, the small island of Pampus looks like any other island. But take a closer look and you’ll see this is no natural land mass at all, but a submerged sea fort built in the 1890s to protect Amsterdam from enemies. After a restoration in 2007, you can now visit Fort Pampus by boat and explore its secret tunnels - and it’s also a popular location for events.

Pampus is a fortress island in the IJmeer. It was built as part of the Defense Line of Amsterdam to defend the Pampus navigation channel against attacks from the Zuiderzee

A great fortified island in the IJ lake. You can take the ferry from Ijburg and when we have time we might bring you with our own boat.
