Museum De bewogen jaren '39-'50

Museum de Bewogen Jaren houses a varied and extensive collection of everyday objects from the Second World War and the Dutch East Indies. The exhibits cover both military and civilian history from that period. The aim is to ‘trace a path’ through the Second World War in Europe and Asia, as well as the police operations in our former Dutch East Indies. There is a permanent exhibition in the museum that traces developments over the years. This exhibition is regularly updated. As a visitor, you will be given a guide containing additional information, which you can use as you walk through the museum, past the display cases. The themed exhibitions focus on specific periods, allowing items from the museum’s storeroom to be displayed. For children, there are photo treasure hunts available, which make a visit particularly interesting for them. The museum is very easy to reach. Everything is displayed on the ground floor and is wheelchair accessible, which is, of course, very important. Every day, there are at least two staff members on hand who can provide you with additional information and guidance as you explore the museum. If you’re visiting as a group and let us know in advance, we’ll arrange for extra guidance. If you have any questions, you can always email us, give us a call or simply pop into the museum.
