Stadhuismuseum Zierikzee

Eeuwfeest 1949

Until 13 April 2025 from 11:00 to 17:00

Exhibition

De Tweede Wereldoorlog liet Schouwen-Duiveland gewond achter. De Duitse bezetter had grote delen van het eiland onder water gezet en haar bewoners geëvacueerd naar andere delen van Nederland. Een groot bevrijdingsfeest bleef daarom uit.

Bevrijding

Om de bevrijding te vieren, gemeenschapszin onder haar bewoners te stimuleren en Zierikzee als toeristische plaats op de kaart te zetten, werd het jaar 1949 door het stadsbestuur aangegrepen om een groot feest te organiseren. Volgens de overlevering stichtte Zierik (Zierix) in 849 namelijk de nederzetting Zierikzee. Voor dit stichtingsjaar kunnen echter geen directe bewijzen worden aangevoerd.

Feest

De omvang van dit feest en de betrokkenheid van de eilandbewoners was en is tot op de dag vandaag ongeëvenaard. Een week lang doste de bevolking van Zierikzee en omringende dorpen zich uit in zelfgemaakte, historische kostuums. Ook werden een historische optocht, kermisplein, kinderoptocht, volksdansen en een openluchtspel georganiseerd. Deze evenementen, waarin elementen van koningsgezindheid en nationalisme te ontdekken zijn, weerspiegelen de verwerking van het recente oorlogsverleden.
