Fort aan de St. Aagtendijk
Fort aan de St. Aagtendijk, Military fort in Beverwijk, Netherlands.
Fort aan de St. Aagtendijk features concrete structures and defensive positions designed to protect Amsterdam through strategic flooding mechanisms.
Built in 1899 as part of the Defence Line of Amsterdam, the fort served as a crucial military installation during both World War I and II.
The fort now operates as Het Muziekfort, providing spaces for musicians and creative professionals to practice, perform, and develop their artistic projects.
Visitors can reach the fort by following the designated UNESCO World Heritage route, which connects multiple fortifications around Amsterdam.
In 1945, fifteen Russian soldiers met their end at this location, marking a somber chapter in the fort's military history.
