An action-packed event with living history displays and military reenactment filling the fort with activity and atmosphere from start to finish.

Even some Luftwaffe pilots will be there, along with other WW1 & WW2 characters.
Children will love this event, and can join in activities. And, don’t not forget that you also have the whole fort to explore! Bring a picnic and make a day of it.
