Waterliniemuseum, Military defense museum in Fort bij Vechten, Netherlands
The Waterliniemuseum exhibits the military defense system that used water as a protective barrier through interactive displays and detailed models.
The museum stands within Fort bij Vechten, part of the New Dutch Water Line constructed in 1815 to protect western Netherlands through controlled flooding.
Exhibits demonstrate how Dutch engineering mastered water management, combining military strategy with hydraulic technology to defend their territory.
The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, offering guided tours, virtual reality experiences, and access to historical fortifications.
Visitors can explore Castellum Fectio, one of the oldest Roman forts in the Netherlands, located directly next to the museum grounds.
Opening Hours: Terça-feira-Domingo 10:00-17:00
