Nationaal Militair Museum

Really interesting museum about Dutch military history and technology, with lots of impressive displays of planes, tanks, artillery, guns, etc. The building is very spacious and there is a large outside area associated with the museum as well. The surroundings are great for a walk, run, or bike trip. Lots of things to do also for kids, with playgrounds, displays targeted at kids. Certainly a must see for anyone interested in military history and weaponry in the Netherlands.

A museum that is definitely worth visiting - extensive and interactive exhibition (lots of vehicles, installations, documentaries), fun indoor playground for children, free parking, espresso bar with a nice view. It was a lovely day out with our kids of 6 & 8.

Very large and lovingly designed exhibition of small arms, artillery, land and air vehicles and uniforms etc. Even visitors who are less enthusiastic about technology can spend a few hours here in numerous information rooms with stories, eyewitness accounts and film and photo material from the last century. For any fan of military history and technology, this museum is well worth the long journey!

One of the museum that I learned about history related to wars and weapons of Nederlands. I spent the time going around the exhibits and rides. Sad to see that they are charging for rides , but it is justifiable. It has good cafeteria and restaurant. I tried cold fudge coffee

Excellent museum. Well laid out exhibits and displays Something for all ages Didn't try the cafe or walk around the grounds as I was on a tight timescale trying to squeeze as much in as I could. Approx £15 entrance and ample parking. Staff helpful and informative

Great museum including a variety of aircraft and army equipment. A lot of interactive activities in the museum itself like a tour inside an old air force transportation plane or even a video game. Great for all ages and some impressive pieces of equipment on display. Very much recommend a visit!

Very nice even for little kids as they have a great play zone for kids in the middle. Good clean toilet facilities. They have a nice restaurant. No bags allowed inside. Spacious parking places

This is an Dutch Military museum, and it is an classic for tank-lovers. Here you can see the beautiful, but very dangerous tanks from close distance. All of these military stuff and vehicles are used by the Dutch army, of foreign origin, and edited by the Dutch to their own requirements. Some of these tanks are from German origin, some from French, Brutish or American origin. All the tanks in this museum are no longer in use by the Dutch army, because of better versions. Also airplanes get better and better, and that's why there are a lot different airplanes, developed over the years. This museum has also a lot of military clothes, used by the Dutch around the 13th century. In this museum you can see the beauty of the military history of the Netherlands. I would gladly recommend this for everyone who is interested in the military history!

The museum has huge collection of weapons, military aircrafts, tanks, and other vehicles. It it's located inside modern building and on the nearby air field. There are original V1 and V2 rockets, F16, Leopard 1 and 2 among the other gems. There many interactive activities for children to learn history. If you're history fun, reserve 4-5 hours to visit. There are 2 cafeterias. The outside playgrounds for children including small pool with water.

Fantastic place; needs more than 1 day to visit

Great museum, accessible for everyone. Kids, elderly, girlfriends who accompany their man and are not interested in military! Entertaining for everyone.

Great military museum with many many old war vehicles🛻, planes🛩, munition 💣, rifles 🔫, swords ⚔ and so on. Also so much interesting information 🤓for both adults and children. Didn’t have the chance to see and read all of it! Also very nice activity for quiz hunt for children. And don’t forget the demonstration of tanks and other vehicles outside which was impressive. In the middle of the museum, there is a great and beautiful playground for small and older kids, and outside there is a training course to mimick military 🪖training 😎

Super nice museum, with different attractions and kids friendly. Also nice to watch the gliders take off and land on the open field, while having some snacks outside

A very good museum. I can see most of the war craft from the world war era, the soldier uniforms, weapons, etc. This museum is in good care, the place is nice and spacious, clean as well.

Absolutely recommended. I had a great time over there. It’s well organized and clean. The museum needs 3 hours minimum. Make sure to do the mini jeep tour and Class 46 experience.

Very nice museum focused on the Dutch military (airforce, army and a little bit of navy). Besides a exhibition displaying the history of the Dutch armed forces there are a lot of vehicles and aircraft on display. Lots of outdoor areas with activities for kids. There are some trails covering the area of the former Soesterberg airforce base (although nice walks in nature, I didn't find then that interesting). Ample parking available and there are EV chargers.

Beautiful museum, lots of military vehicles but what stood out the most for me was the collection of aircraft they have F-16’s an F-15 and a lot of older aircraft this museum is well worth the price.

Great museum with plenty to see and do. Son liked the fighter pilot test and pilot picture at the end .

Amazing museum. Lot of things too look at. They also have a big playing area for kids in the middle.
They have signs on Dutch and English.

One of the best Military Museums in Europe. The exhibits are plenty and have a lot of space to breathe. The information is overwhelmingly vast. I especially liked the evolution of the machine gun, the room about civil anti-military protests and the free-floating airplanes. A must-see!
