Groesbeek, Netherlands: Freedom Museum

Reminders of World War II are still around in much of Europe, at least if you are looking for them. It's still difficult to grasp what exactly happened in the years leading up to the conflict.

The Freedom Museum in Groesbeek is designed to give you something to think about, and it succeeds nicely. It concentrates on the Netherlands and Germany, since the latter is only a few miles away. The museum tried to cover the Story of War and Freedom Without Borders from a variety of perspectives. 

This used to be the National Liberation Museum until 2019, and has a big wide white roof that soft of looks like a parachute. The location is significant too, since some major battles took place nearby. Since three languages are available for the exhibits, its potential audience is expanded. 

Let's hear an opinion about it:
