Tiermann:
The ship is the Santinisma Trinidad. Leo Vermeulen posted photos of it on Facebook in the Playmobil Fanbase group. I assume it is by him

Thanks, Tim!

The entire ship looks a bit awkward in shape... I prefer the zoomed in pictures. However, a nice piece of work!

Thanks for sharing. This same museum had the Playmobil exposition in 2007. I really liked the museum. Brings back a lot of memories seeing all this stuff someone you know used to have!
Looking forward to visiting this one too.

You took nice pictures!

The ship is indeed the Spanish late 18th-century (launched in 1769, last action during the "Battle of Trafalgar in 1805) first-of-the-line "Santisima Trinidad" made by Dutch playmo-customizer "Playmoleo", who also built the "Redoutable".
His Playmo-version of the biggest warship of that era will be at display at the museum till 3 January. If things go as planned/agreed sofar, thereafter she will be transferred to another "homeport" ;D.

Here a few pics of the ship under construction, which I took when visiting Leo during the summer of 2015.

Leo also built on request of the museum´s director a beautiful playmobil-replica of the (much smaller sized) Dutch 16th-century reconaissance-vessel "Halve Maen", which took part in the "Slag om de Zuiderzee" (Battle of the South-sea) in 1573, in which the Dutch defeated the Spanish fleet.
