Our hotel staff dismissed this as somewhat of a "minor" museum but my husband and I spent several hours there and were touched and impressed by it. I learned a great deal about the Dutch and the Jewish residents during WWII. There were photos, films, various objects from that time and all were interesting. I was most touched by the... More

It is a sad but compelling story that is shared. Gave us more respect for the dutch when we saw how they fought back during the war. Excellent items to view from the time also. More

This unheralded museum near the Zoo is much more than "merely" a Resistance Museum. It is designed to make visitors consider what THEY would have done, faced with the choices the Nazis forced on the Dutch. Loaded with personal artifacts and stories, it is thought-provoking and moving. And it has a great little cafe attached! More

This place is a little hidden treasure and well worth a visit after visiting the Anne Frank Huis (house) it... More

A well set out tour through the occupation of the Netherlands. Good audio guide, although clunky to use at first. More

I really liked the Resistance Museum. I've seen others like it, but the curators have really used the period materials well to tell the history of the period about 1936 to 1950 centering on WW 2. The visuals are simple yet very powerful and bring a strong sense of the privations felt by the Dutch with special emphasis on the... More
