Heritage House South Holland and Atlantikwall Heritage Line have mapped out the still visible and interesting remnants of the Atlantic Wall in the province of South Holland. The result is an informative description of the defense line and a map with interesting locations. Of course, the Atlantikwall Museum Noordwijk is not lacking.
Around Hoek van Holland a 30-kilometer bicycle route has been set out which shows parts of the defense line. The cycling route and overview map are presented on 8 May at the fort in Hoek van Holland and can be ordered via the internet at the Heritage House or available from various museums.
Museum Noordwijk transfers WW2 material to the Atlantic Museum Noordwijk Foundation
From the view that these materials may fit better in the collection of the Atlantic Museum Noordwijk Foundation, Museum Noordwijk donated various objects and documents from the period 1940 – 1945 to the Foundation on Thursday 6 March. These include various display signs, packets of surrogate cigarettes, a blackout light bulb, a yellow felt Star of David, a crystal receiver. In time, these materials can be seen in the Atlantikwall Museum Noordwijk. The Foundation is extremely pleased with this gift and with it the expansion of the collection.
