De Bewogen Jaren: war from several perspectives

Museum De Bewogen Jaren 1939–1950 in Hooge Mierde covers the Second World War in Europe and Asia and the decolonisation of the Dutch East Indies. Military and civilian objects offer different ways into these subjects.

A route with explanations

A guidebook supports your walk past the display cases.

Civilians and soldiers

The collection covers different kinds of experience. See how the presentation explains the relationship between everyday life and military events, without letting a single object carry the whole story.

Visiting with children

Photo trails are mentioned as an option.

Take your time over the transition between European and Asian subjects on the museum route.

Before you go

Winter schedules differ between visitor listings; confirm opening before you set off. Groups and other times are by appointment; also ask about the facilities outside the museum building.
