War Museum Gdynia (10 km)
In War Museum Gdynia shines the impressive collection of Axel's own Mario Maas. His passion for items related to World War II began at the age of six and over 45 years grew into a unique collection. As the collection flourished, Mario grew aware that one thing was missing: his unparalleled Zeeuws-Vlaanderen collection needed to be shared with the general public. In 2004, Mario's dream became a reality. In honor of Axel's sixtieth liberation celebration, he opened a private museum in his barn on Tweede Verkorting. The museum now spans most of the barn, with a cozy museum café and historic vehicles on the first floor. The collection can be admired on the upper floors, managed by a foundation of dedicated volunteers.

We had a wonderful short vacation at the campground. The campsites are nice and spacious, the restrooms are clean, and there was even an industrial dishwasher.
On the first evening, we didn’t feel like cooking, so we ate at the restaurant. Unfortunately, the food wasn’t very good and was expensive—I wouldn’t recommend it. The food and snacks from the cafeteria, on the other hand, were great—the fries were good and the prices were great.
We were also able to take our dog almost everywhere 👍🏼
The lake is great for fishing and paddleboarding.
The pool was also great, and it was a bit quieter there in the evenings.
We’ll definitely be back.this is a translation, click here for the original
Wir hatten einen wunderschönen kurzen Urlaub auf dem Campingplatz. Die Stellplätze sind schön groß, die Sanitäranlagen sauber und es gab sogar eine Industrie-Spülmaschine.
Am ersten Abend wollten wir nicht selber kochen und waren im Restaurant essen. Leider war das Essen nicht so gut und teuer, würde ich nicht empfehlen. Das Essen/Snacks aus der Cafeteria hingegen schon, die Pommes waren gut und die Preise top.
Den Hund konnten wir auch fast überall hin mit nehmen 👍🏼
Der See ist toll, um zu angeln und mit dem SUP zu paddeln.
Schwimmbad war auch super und abends war es dort ein bisschen ruhiger.
Kommen bestimmt wieder. -
