What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Amsterdam as a protected wreck. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The Amsterdam was a Dutch East India Company (VOC) ship, wrecked in 1694 near Yarmouth, Isle of Wight, after striking the Goodwin Sands. It was lost with all 237 crew members, making it one of the most significant maritime disasters of the late 17th century, and its wreck is now protected under the National Heritage List for England.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
