Wow, made this a stop on our trip from the States and was not disappointed! What a fantastic collection and display of memorabilia, vehicles, aircraft and interactive displays that walk you through the entire war and Overloons involvement. They even have recovered wreckage and the bodies of some airmen that couldn't be found back then. They have the pieces of the aircraft laid out on display. Well done! Highly recommend going!

Well worth a visit. Lots of hardware to see including planes and tanks. The landing craft was also impressive. The volunteers have done a great job. Well done.

Fascinating place to see! Definitely something you can't miss out on. Everything from information about world war 2, about how people felt at that time and there was even a decision making game talking about defending your own country and supporting the other. They also have a massive room full with tanks, trucks, planes and armory. Had a bunch of fun here. Will occasionally visit back!

Went for Militracks event.
The museum is amazing as far as quantity quality, and various vehicles and displays. Truly better than most any other museum.
The Militracks event was epic on its own.

Great experience, but spent most of Saturday queuing for ride tickets, which meant I missed out on the market until Saturday afternoon. Sunday was worse. People queuing for hours to get to the stall and be told no more tickets. this process needs to be streamlined because you waste most of your time in a queue. there was some lovely machines there but again tickets were hit and miss, and some vehicles didn't allow us mere mortals to ride on. such a shame. the weather didn't help either as it rained most of Saturday turning the track into a mud pit. maybe organise next year during the mid to end of summer. we got extra tickets on Saturday for rides on Sunday again we queued in line for 2 hours to get on the rides. this was separate to the queuing for tickets. maybe try sell certain tickets for different time slots online to avoid the ticket purchase part. then you queue for your ride at your time slot, just a suggestion, like someone else said brilliant experience but not sure if I'd return unfortunately.

Very good museum for exhibits. However English descriptions are only available via an app, which makes a quick, smooth visit impossible if you are an English speaker. Yet printed descriptions are available in German?! Also, there seems to be little about the battle in Overloon itself (unless I missed it?)

Simply brilliant museum that handles war and its horrors in a sensitive manner. Very impactful information section. Breathtaking military vehicle collection maintained to a high standard. All staff I interacted with were excellent. A special thanks to Matt who accompanied me for a walk around the garage and shared stories of the vehicles and their maintenence.
