Tips
What makes this fort special are the cellars under both throat casemates, which served for the storage of meat. The meat was transported to the fort via the North Sea Canal and then taken to other forts. After the Second World War until the 1980s, the fort served as a warehouse for explosives for the Dutch army.
The fort has now been transformed into 'Cheese Fort Amsterdam', including a visitor center.translated by
