Memory International War Museum

On the initiative of mr. Joop Staman a war museum was founded located in the building of the former library in Nijverdal.

The museum highlights different themes of the war from start to finish, with photos, text, life-size dioramas, armored vehicles, cannons, puppets, etc. Among other topics the invasion of the Netherlands, Operation Market Garden, the Holocaust, the Normandy invasion and going into hiding are addressed. A large bunker has also been reconstructed in which one can experience what it was like during the invasion of Normandy.

For current visiting hours, please visit the website of the museum.
