A very nice with tons of artifacts from the war. Nice setup, with alot of information. We had the honor to meet the owner Lord Gilbert Von Landschoot, very nice man, who told us alot of stories about the and his fascinating family history. Really recommend this museum. We have visited this place without planning, just be on bikes but stop over for ice creams and coffee. We were surprised how wonderful this place is, how charming people are and how nice the atmosphere is. Today they danced and music was extraordinary...everyone was very charming and smiling. Easy to park the car, a lot of space inside. Very clean and recommended for visiting. Excellent privately owned museum. Focuses on Canadian and Polish forces operating in the immediate area. The collection includes an impressive array of items including weapons, uniforms and vehicles with some unique items. We were lucky enough to be greeted by the owner who set up the on his family's land and told us about his family in the war, how he collected the items and Canadian operations in the area. We also ate at the restaurant and had a good lunch. Photos weren't allowed in the but I did take a couple of the excellent models and dioramas upstairs. Excellent with some excellent dioramas to set scene. If your a tourist best to bring cash A lovely, family run war museum. A really touching exhibit to those who history could've forgotten, but will now always be remembered. The dioramas and models are amazing and very engaging, clearly a lot of time and effort went into them and it was very impactful. The gardens are also gorgeous and fascinating, and well worth a visit. Fantastic celebrating the contributions of Canada and Poland in the liberation of this area. Displays are well maintained and very informative. A good mix of videos and traditional displays. Not great. Doesn’t accept foreign payment cards so cash only. A few of the screens don’t work, the gardens only open at 2pm (why?), and we had a big group of cackling people ahead of us who thought they were at a comedy show. It’s a war museum, show some respect. Bit of a strange place in a park but the bar has a terrace and it is nice and quiet. This a great example of a privately-owned museum. The owner has accumulated lots of artifacts covering all aspects of the second World War, but with a focus on Canadian and Polish forces. You can really feel the passion he feels for the subject. Definitely worth a visit when you're in the area. Schitterende collectie van wapens, uniformen in prachtige displays, echte aanrader om een namiddag door te brengen This is a superb place. Far beyond my expectations and well worth the drive from anywhere in the region. The detailing is spectacular and the family has committed their lives to this remarkable museum. They also have an excellent restaurant with tasty Belgian beers. There is also a Canadian war cemetery close by where you can pay to respects. What an incredible site, very informative and interesting. The cafe has delicious food and drink aswell! Indrukwekkend archief. Heel veel posters uit de oorlogsjaren en mooie maquettes en displays. Fantastic place for WW2 passionates. The best maintained war I have ever visited, with lots of details and army accessories. Plus a fabulous collection of small scale models, reenacting battles. An extensive that you can look at. Unfortunately, the curator is not really interested in historical education. A request that I made to the curator personally and a promise that I received personally from him ultimately dragged on for two years and the promise was not kept at all, despite two visits. A very negative experience for me. For me it is a given: *a man's word is his bond* Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
