Fort Nieuw Amsterdam in Suriname: A Journey Through Colonial History In this video I take you to Fort Nieuw Amsterdam in Suriname, a place that highlights the rich and complex colonial history of the country. The fort is not only a historical bastion, but also the location of the Museum Fort Nieuw Amsterdam, where you can wander among the stories of the past. We explore the grounds, including the Telecom Museum, which shows the technological development in the region. But not everything here has been well preserved. During the vlog we also pass the impoverished Kampong and the replica of a plantation house, which are unfortunately not in the best condition. These parts of the museum are a reminder of the importance of preserving historical heritage. With atmospheric images and music I take you on a journey through time, along the impressive and sometimes forgotten history of this place. Don't miss this special experience and dive into the colonial stories of Fort Nieuw Amsterdam with us! Watch the full vlog and discover why this place is an important piece of heritage in Suriname. #suriname #fortnieuwamsterdam #paramaribo
