Tips

Vlissingen has an interesting history, especially because of its strategic location at the mouth of the Western Scheldt. During the Second World War the city was the scene of heavy fighting, both in the city itself and on the Western Scheldt. The liberation of Vlissingen played an important role in the 'Battle of the Scheldt'.

The Landing Monument on the Commandoweg in Vlissingen commemorates the amphibious landing of British, Dutch and French commandos from No. 4 Commando on November 1, 1944. Next to the Landing Monument is the monument of the 52nd Lowland Division.

The National Monument for the 4th Commando Brigade, as the Landing Monument is officially called, was created at the initiative of British former commandos. At the request of the initiators, the monument consists of a statue of an attacking commando. It was designed by sculptor Titus Leeser.
