In the fort tower, personal belongings, documents, photographs and aircraft parts tell the story of Allied airmen and the air war over Rivierenland.

Plan your visit ↗

One person as a guide

Choose one airman and follow name, unit, date and crash site through several objects. Do not fill in unknown experiences or final moments.

The fort changes the context

The exhibition is now on the first floor of Fort bij Asperen. Distinguish between the history of the fort and the story of the air war.

A part needs provenance

For aircraft fragments, find spot, type and identification are essential. Read labels carefully and treat assumptions as uncertain.
