The oldest remnant of Dutch architecture is Fort Zoutman and the Willem III Tower which were completed in 1796.
The Aruban Historical museum was established by the CCA - Cultureel Centrum van Aruba - (Cultural Center Aruba Foundation) in 1983 when the restoration of the Fort Zoutman Willem III Tower was completed. It offers a fascinating collection of articles from the island's earliest times through early Spanish and Dutch periods, and onwards to present times.
Today, the building hosts the year-round weekly Bon Bini Festival each Tuesday evening in the courtyard where dancers in traditional costumes perform for well-attended audiences. Consider this venue for special event theme parties where your guests are surrounded by Aruba's history.
