Municipality of Weesp Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

When you are interested in military history, the fortresses of the defense line of Amsterdam are a must see.  Build around 1900, it consists of some 46 fortresseses, batteries, dikes, dams and locks. The enemy was partly kept out by inundating the land outside the defense line. The invention of the airplane was a real spoiler for military strategists... 

Note: this fortress, Bastion de Bakkerschans, is not open to the public, but many other fortresses are. http://www.stellingvanamsterdam.nl/en/home

We were very happy with our accommodation and would recommend it. The only issue is they should provide a broom for cleaning as the place is very dusty and they don’t provide cleaning services unless you pay extra!
