Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. The is in an active military base, so you need to sign with security, with ID for a pass. The is in two parts. One is the of Dutch calvary and the regiment (all in dutch). In the other building, are the tanks, APCs and armoured cars/recon vehicles. If you have an interest in military you need to visit this smallish museum. It focuses on the of the Dutch cavalry and the evolution into AFVss, from the 17th to 21st centuries Main building has lots of exhibits, photos and models. The vehicle collection is impressive and located in a seperate building which you need escorted to as the is on a live Military Bas. The staff were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Impressive collection of working vehicles along with quite a few located around the immediate area. Dont forget you will need ID to gain access but all very straightforward. Well recommended. Was really great to find this Gem. Arriving at the gates, we were unsure if we should be there at all.. Just a simple sign in are were were greeted by one of the volunteers. What great people with a love of the and meeting people. We enjoyed our time strolling around and then were lead to heavy iron on show. We had hands-on experience with some of the worlds most famous armour. Thanks to all there for making us so welcome and all the work that goes into this display. D Interesting with the of the Dutch cavalry. 1 buildings with uniforms and small weapons, another one with armored vehicles and tanks. Outside are also several tanks. One interesting vehicle: the Landsverk M38”. Build in Sweden, with a 37mm gun and 2x 7.9mm machinegun, t has a steering wheel in the front and in the back, and 2 drivers. It could maneuver as viable and fast backwards as it could forward. Fantastic overview of the Dutch Cavalry, with movies, uniforms and lots of vehicles. Anyone interested in military should visit this small which deserves to be better known. It focuses on the of the Dutch cavalry and its evolution into tank regiments, from the 17th to 21st centuries. Chock full of professionally-displayed militaria from uniforms, models, medals, paintings, photos, ephemera etc, and an external display of tanks from WW2 to the present day. This is a 'hidden gem' (its website doesn't do the variety of exhibits justice!). It can be reached easily with a 5 minute bus ride from Amersfoort Central Station or a brisk 25 minute walk. Highly recommended. Very friendly staff, who helped out my hapless English self. As the is on an active military base you need to go through security to get in, however my steering wheel was on the wrong side for the gate buzzer, but everyone was very friendly about it. staff even cycled alongside my car back to the gate so they could buzz it open for me and I wouldn't have to get out. Interesting exhibition of both uniforms, medals, silverwear and a separate building of vehicles. None of the exhibitions are in English, but if you're into military you'll be able to understand what's exhibited anyway. Very surprised at the standard of the exhibits and also the size of the place, much bigger than I expected. Very welcoming staff and informative. All round a very pleasant experience 👍👍👍👍 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.
