    The Museum Engelandvaarders in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, offers visitors an informative look into the history of Dutch resistance during World War II. The museum focuses on the "Engelandvaarders" - Dutch people who risked their lives to escape to England to join the Allied forces. Exhibits showcase personal stories, artifacts, and interactive displays that bring this important period to life. Many visitors appreciate the well-organized layout and the depth of information provided, though some note that not all information is available in English. The museum is relatively small, which allows for an intimate and focused experience, but it may leave some visitors wanting more. The staff is generally described as friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. While the museum might not appeal to everyone, those interested in WWII history and the Dutch resistance movement find it a worthwhile and educational visit.
