The Dutch Fortress Museum can be found at bastion Turfpoort, one of the six bastions to which the fortified city owes its typical star shape. The fortress is very well preserved and you can admire the defenses in all its glory. Exhibits are displayed inside.

Very interesting museum in an impressive fortress.
Nice to combine with a walk along the moat.
