In the Dutch Open Air Museum in Arnhem, you can travel on foot or trolley through an eventful 250 years of history and experience the rich history of the 'ordinary' Dutch folks. See how bakers, farmers, millers and workers lived and earned a living in the past.

The Airborne Museum traces the course of the struggle to take Arnhem during World War II, using models, slides and taped commentaries. The collection is on display in a villa near Oosterbeek, used by the commander of the 1st British Airborne Division as his headquarters during the invasion. A war cemetery is nearby.

Palace 'Het Loo' in Apeldoorn now serves as a museum after undergoing a spectacular restoration of the buildings and the gardens, returning them to the original 17th century state. The interior dates from the time of William and Mary up to the reign of Queen Wilhelmina. It reflects lifestyles of the members of the Royal family over three centuries. The entire complex is surrounded by extensive woodland dotted with romantic lakes.
