After that, the Batavia will be prepared for its new location on land, which means the ship will be closed to visitors for a while. The shipyard and the exhibition spaces at Museum Batavialand will remain open to visitors as usual during this period. The relocation of the Batavia is an important step in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.batavialand.nl\/en\/agenda\/vernieuwing-museum-batavialand\/\">the renovation of Museum Batavialand<\/a>.
