    The war museum aims to give a thorough and personal view of what life was like in Arnhem and the surrounding area during the Second World War, not only focusing on big events like the battle but also on everyday life under occupation. Or visit the Arnhem airborne museum - the very building that served in September 1944 as the headquarters of the British 1st Airborne Division. The museum is dedicated to telling the story of the Battle of Arnhem — its military events, as well as the human impact on soldiers and civilians.
