Amsterdam - Small museums enjoy cult status in the Netherlands exhibiting items as varied as tulips, handbags, trees and dredges.
The latter in the town of Sliedrecht, near Rotterdam, is the National Museum of Dredging (Nationaal Baggermuseum).
"And here we have our Rembrandt," said curator Hans Wijn as he pointed to a glass display case with a model of the dredge Pharaon. Used for many years in the Suez Canal, it was sunk during the Suez Crisis in 1956.
