Hitler built no fewer than 550 bunkers to protect Texel from Allied invasion. These formed part of the so-called Atlantic Wall, a defence line over 5,000 kilometres long, stretching from the north-west of Spain along the coasts of Western Europe, to Norway’s northernmost tip.
In 2025 open from Tuesday, April 15, to Sunday, October 26.
Open Tue. to Sun. from 10 AM to 5 PM. Closed on Monday.
Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed inside the museum.
However, service dogs are permitted inside.
Together with a museum employee you walk to the bunker opposite the museum. In the bunker you will be taken into the conversations that were held there during the 2 most crucial days of the Georgian Uprising. Jetty Bakker also tells in a timeline her memories of the war on Texel and about her work for the Georgians. You will receive an explanatory handout in advance with a description of the dire circumstances in which the Georgian soldiers found themselves during those days. The 3D audio tour can be done in both Dutch, German and English.
Would you like to visit our museum with a group (from 12 people)? Then we appreciate it if you make a reservation via groepen@lomt.nl. You can also indicate whether you would like a guided tour.
