Dutch Resistance Museum

The Dutch Resistance Museum tells the history of the Dutch whom fought back underground during World War 2. From May 1940 to May 1945, the Netherlands was occupied by Nazi Germany. How did the Dutch respond to the increasing oppression of the occupying power? And what did it mean for their everyday lives? You’ll see, hear and read fascinating stories about the exceptional and sometimes heroic deeds as well as Dutch daily life during that period. Learn about ordinart people doing extraordinary things in turbulent times. What would you do as an official under occupation? You are being told to give orders you disagree with, but if you resign, you know they’ll replace you with a nazi… Gear up for an emotional and thought provoking tour.

The museum provokes thought on the war and also answers some important questions you might have after visiting the Anne Frank House. Free audio guide in seven languages! For temporary exhibitions, guided tours and educational programs, please visit the website.
