Generaal Maczek Museum, History museum in Breda, Netherlands.

The Generaal Maczek Museum documents the history of the First Polish Armored Division and its military operations in the Netherlands during World War II. The collection includes military equipment, documents, and items from soldiers and civilians.

General Stanislaw Maczek commanded the First Polish Armored Division and liberated several Dutch cities, including Breda, from German occupation between 1944 and 1945. These operations were crucial to the liberation of the region.

The collection displays personal belongings and photographs that preserve the bond between Polish and Dutch people forged during the war. These objects tell stories of individuals who met and connected during this period.

The collection is currently kept at the City Archive of Breda and can be viewed by appointment. It is best to arrange a visit in advance to see the documents and materials.

The collection grew from the dedication of three individuals who gathered materials specifically about the liberation of Breda. This passion of private collectors preserved important memories that might have been lost.
