The described collection
The museum of the Abbink family mentions military uniforms, vehicles, documents and personal stories. This combination points to different ways of approaching the subject of war, but is currently no guarantee of a visit.
Vehicles and their context
Among the vehicles mentioned are a Weasel and a Bren Carrier. On a later visit, the explanation of use and origin matters more than simply recognising the type.
Waiting for a reopening
The closure notice takes precedence over a general weekly schedule. Check whether a new opening has been announced before you travel or arrange a visit with others.
Before you go
No free museum access is confirmed while the renovation and closure notice stand. Ask directly about the current situation and any future visiting option.
