Groede Podium, Recreation area and bunker park in Groede, Netherlands

Groede Podium combines natural play structures with military heritage, featuring tree trunks, climbing towers, hanging bridges, and water playground across its grounds.

Between 1942 and 1944, German forces constructed eleven bunkers disguised as regular buildings, complete with painted doors and windows to form a concealed military base.

The recreational space demonstrates Dutch ingenuity in transforming former military installations into educational facilities where children learn about regional history through play.

Located at Gerard de Moorsweg 4, the park offers free admission and includes a restaurant called 't Hoofdkwartier serving meals throughout the day.

The bunker complex contains designated structures such as Villa Saarland and Villa Freundlich, which maintained their original ceiling frescoes in the hospital section.
