Lana's impress:
It was a unique experience and in the room with special effects (pictures 2 to 7) you could really imagine what fear, tragedy and hard life was like. During the walk through museum we found out a lot of information needed for our project, especially how this war affected people living in Holland. I can say that museum has the biggest collection of pictures, models, items, maps and so on.
Robin's impress:
I have already been to this museum and have learned about it in school, so I have already heard a lot of information that was provided in the museum. But still, each time I am moved by the tragedy of the war. I hadn't been in the bomb simulator room (special effects room) yet and it was very realistic.
