Itinerary

1. Nationaal Monument Kamp Vught
We visit the former Nazi concentration camp Vught in the South of Holland. The camp was first used in 1942 and held 31,000 Jewish and political prisoners. We will visit the remainders of the concentration camp with its watchtowers, barracks, crematorium, original train and children's memorial. We also visit the execution site in the woods where over 300 resistance members were executed. The camp has a book shop, a good audio tour and a small cafeteria.
Duration: 180 mins
2. The John Frost Bridge - John Frostbrug
The John Frost Bridge over the Rhine at Arnhem was the last bridge that needed to be captured during Operation Market Garden. If the Allies could capture this bridge the road to Germany would lay open. The bridge plays an important role in the movie A Bridge Too Far.
Duration: 45 mins
3. Airborne Museum at Hartenstein
We visit the Airborne Museum at Villa Hartenstein. During the Battle of Arnhem in September 1944, which was part of the military operation Market Garden, Hartenstein became the headquarters of the British Airborne Division during heavy fighting. The daring attempt to punch through German lines and capture the Ruhr area to quickly end the war was unsuccessful. The bridge at Arnhem turned out to be a bridge too far. Now, Hartenstein is home to personal stories from British, Polish, and German soldiers as well as from civilians, told through the museum’s unique historical objects.
Duration: 180 mins
4. Airborne War Cemetery
We will visit the Arnhem Oosterbeek War Cemetery. Here most of the 1684 fallen soldiers of the September landings are laid to rest.
