About this school trip
The Verzetsmuseum Amsterdam (Dutch Resistance Museum) brings the history of the Second World War in the Netherlands and its former colonies close to home through more than 130 personal stories. They are the stories of ordinary people who faced difficult choices in extreme circumstances. As a result, pupils naturally start asking themselves: what would I have done?
The permanent exhibitions cover daily life, collaboration, the persecution of the Jews and resistance, as well as the former colonies. In Verzetsmuseum Junior, younger pupils follow the story of four children during the war. The programmes tie in with history, social studies and citizenship. The museum offers preparatory and follow-up lessons; good preparation makes the visit all the more engaging and meaningful.
We are happy to arrange transport to Amsterdam for you and your pupils. With our comfortable coach and experienced driver, your group arrives safely and on time, which matters because the museum works with fixed programme times.
