Sealcentre Pieterburen is moving! This is your last chance to visit the centre in Pieterburen before we move to the new Waddenzee World Heritage Centre in Lauwersoog. We will close to visitors in Pieterburen after the Christmas holiday weeks.
Will you drop by in Pieterburen?
For more than 50 years, the Sealcentre Pieterburen has helped thousands of seals and informed visitors from all over the world about these special animals and their habitat. Now we are preparing for a new chapter in our history.
Visit the Sealcentre Pieterburen for the last time and take a look at our seal sanctuary and exhibitions. Learn about the history and the important work we have done here.
From 2025 in Lauwersoog
From early next year, we will continue in the Werelderfgoedcentrum Waddenzee in Lauwersoog (WEC). This new location gives us more opportunities to continue our mission and raise public awareness of the importance of the Wadden Sea and its inhabitants. At our new centre, we will continue to provide specialist care for seals and you can continue to visit the seals.
Take this last chance to experience the Seal Centre in Pieterburen. We welcome you to close this special place together and look ahead to an exciting future in Lauwersoog.
