Reviews
Small, but really nice museum to check out about WW2! Awesomely friendly staff, many interactive exhibits (in Dutch), and great exterior. Definitely recommend!
Very interesting museum displaying a well selected variety of items each carrying a story. What a shame a city such as Rotterdam with rich history has only ONE city museum. Please open more exhibitions, Rotterdam needs it!
Small but beautiful museum about Rotterdam during the war. The artifacts that they have are truely special, and some of them show the devastation of the German bombardment and the city fire that followed.
Great little museum to learn about the bombing of Rotterdam. Lots of artifacts on display. A great video story that goes around the walls highlighting items mentioned in the video. The staff were really friendly and helpful.
It's a small museum, but I did learn some very interesting information. Like in the 90s a German artist placed engraved bricks In the walkways of the city for each Jew that was taken during the war. The bricks are in front of where they lived with their name and what happened to them. After learning that I kept an eye out for them on my stroll around the city and found quite a few of them. the staff was also extremely friendly and helpful. For the price it's worth stopping in for a short visit.
