Beverloo Camp

A museum celebrating the camp's history exists at what used to be its hospital building.

[2] In 1920, the facilities hosted the pistol and rifle shooting events for the 1920 Summer Olympics.

While those events took place, combat engineers detonated grenades four kilometres from the shooting stands.

For World War II, during the German occupation, following the Battle of France, 10,000 members of the Hitler Youth forming the 12th SS Panzer Division Hitlerjugend were trained at the camp.

Josef Nassy, an American black artist of Jewish descent, was imprisoned here during World War II.
