bringing the battle of arnhem to life

The successful and internationally acclaimed Airborne Experience at the Airborne Museum is renewed. Visitors will get a first-hand impression of the Battle of Arnhem, scene by scene. You feel part of the huge airborne operation and battle that took place near Arnhem in September 1944. History is brought to life through a state-of-the-art combination of realist decors, overwhelming authentic footage, and light, sound and smoke effects.

Visitors board a glider, sit down, and are briefed about the mission. Through the windows, you witness the plane being towed in England - and then the benches start rocking, the fuselage squeaks and creaks, you hear the voices of brave and frightened soldiers. After landing, you walk onto the hectic landing grounds. An operation that has begun in good spirits soon turns into a nightmare, however, as you witness the fights in the streets of Arnhem with German troops.
