Breendonk Fort Memorial, one of the best-preserved Nazi camps in Europe after the fall of the Reich, with a Dantesque appearance

The Nazi horror and its concentration camps did not spare Belgium. A visit to Breendonk Fort, one of the best preserved Nazi camps in Europe since the fall of the Third Reich, is truly moving. The Dantesque aspect of the site with its very heavy atmosphere has made it the symbol of the perpetuation of the memory of the suffering, torture and death of so many victims. Warning to the too sensitive souls who might come out shocked.

A NE PAS MANQUER
Une muséographie remarquable qui attache le visiteur pétrifié pendant deux bonnes heures. Le fonctionnement du fort, les photos des principaux tortionnaires, de leur procès, voire pour certains de leur exécution, sont remarquablement expliqués par l'image et par le son.
Une salle propose sur ses murs, les noms gravés de tous les prisonniers connus du camp. En son milieu : les urnes contenant la terre de 17 camps de la mort de l'Allemagne nazie.
L'audioguide, compris dans le prix d'entrée, est incontournable. Visite difficilement supportable, car le site est sans conteste, le mieux conservé dans son intégralité de tous les camps de concentration nazis .

Témoignage historique
Témoignage émouvant de l'histoire de la belgique et de la second guerre mondiale. Vaut le détour.
