Overloon War Museum

After the Battle of Overloon, an enormous amount of war materiel, including tanks and other vehicles, was left behind on the battlefield.

Overlooner Harry van Daal was so shocked by the events that he proposed keeping the battlefield intact and turning it into a museum.

A feature of the museum is the large number of military vehicles and equipment on display, both German and Allied.

The special objects in the collection include: The museum also shows weapons, both cannons and small arms, uniforms of both the Allies and the Wehrmacht and military utensils, sometimes in recreated scenes.

In addition, in the forest park and in the halls there are a number of statues of Dutch and Allied main figures from the war, including Colonel Borghouts , Queen Wilhelmina and Prince Bernhard.
