About

The primary location of the museum foundation is an authentically decorated command bunker of type 608 (Battalions,- Departmental or regimentalCommand post). From this bunker and the nearby villas was by the occupying military command Stutzpunkgruppe Scheveningen lined. The bunker is mostly original furnishings and gives visitors the unique experience of a tangible past. There are also original historical objects of German, British, Canadian and American forces exhibited. In the adjacent personnel bunker type 622 (Doppelgruppenunterstand) Is a 'time capsule'; one of the two common rooms furnished with only unrestored objects. The visitor gets the impression that the bunker since the end of World War II has remained untouched. In reality, most looted bunkers in the Netherlands after the war and stripped of all valuable parts. The other lounge is an exhibition space for photographs, art and historical objects.
