A wonderful museum that will leave you speechless.
You’ll hear the stories of the people behind the uniforms and see a vast array of exhibits.
Highly recommended!

It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience to finally visit the museum, particularly as it highlighted the ‘forgotten’ aspect of this chapter in our liberation.

To round it off nicely, it might be worth taking a closer look in future at the May Days of ’40 and the Occupation.
Nevertheless, this is a marvellous museum to which I would be only too happy to return in the future!

What a brilliant museum.
The dioramas are superbly crafted and the accompanying narrative is a real pleasure to listen to
