Warnsbornのおすすめランニングルート

1997年5月8日、アーヘンで当時のドイツ連邦大統領ロマン・ヘルツォークが、特別な栄誉として国際カール大賞を受賞しました。彼は感謝のスピーチで次のように述べました。 「千年間、私たちの大陸の運命は、統一か分裂かのどちらで生きていくかという問題でした… 1995年5月8日、第二次世界大戦の終結を記憶して、私はすでにそう言いました。そしてここで意味を込めて繰り返したいと思います。… まず私たちヨーロッパ人を団結させるのは、私たちの共通のヨーロッパ文化、そして自由の文化である私たちの政治文化です… それは私たちが皆、その傘の下で生きています。私たちが互いに対して戦った戦争は、この傘を一度以上ぐらつかせました… 今日、私たちはこの傘、ヨーロッパの精神的な上部構造を強化し、政治的統一と経済的進歩という強固な下部構造の上に置くという、またとない機会を持っています。… 私たちは、世界の他の地域と平和的に、そして相互の尊重をもって共に生きていきたいと考えています。しかし、私たちはまた、私たち自身の信念と生き方を維持したいと考えています。そのためには、統一されたヨーロッパが必要です。」（ロマン・ヘルツォーク）

The Arnhem War Museum ’40–’45, located just off the Apeldoornseweg route at Kemperbergerweg 780 on the outskirts of Arnhem, is a must-see stop for Komoot riders interested in WWII history. Housed in a former village school, it features an impressive private collection with detailed dioramas, map displays, and multilingual panels that vividly portray airborne operations, civilian experiences, resistance stories, and German defenses during Operation Market Garden. The museum’s weapons section is a highlight, showcasing original rifles, pistols, machine guns, and artillery shells from both Axis and Allied forces. Key exhibits include German Mauser rifles, MP40 submachine guns, British Lee-Enfield rifles, Sten guns, various types of ammunition and grenades, as well as artillery shells and anti-tank weapons, offering a comprehensive look at the armaments used in the area. Many of these items were recovered from the local area, collected over decades by the museum’s founder and other dedicated individuals passionate about preserving Arnhem’s WWII history. These weapons and artifacts were found during postwar clearing of battlefields, old bunkers, and abandoned military sites in the surrounding forests and fields. While most recovered weapons have been safely deactivated or rendered harmless, occasional reports exist of people discovering live ordnance like grenades or unexploded shells, which required intervention by bomb disposal teams. Such incidents are rare today but serve as a reminder that the scars of war can still surface decades later. The museum offers a safe, insightful way to explore these artifacts with respect and education. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, with admission around €10 for adults and children aged 6–11 (younger children enter free). Visitors should allow at least 90 minutes to two hours to fully explore the exhibits, though enthusiasts may stay longer. The museum makes a natural and rewarding break on your ride, providing a chance to switch from woodland scenery to immersive indoor history, with knowledgeable volunteers who bring the stories to life. There’s free parking nearby, and a café where you can refuel before continuing your journey through Arnhem’s intriguing forest landscapes and wartime sites.

A fascinating museum. Here you will find all kinds of WW2 artefacts and historical objects from the Operation Market Garden that took place in Arnhem in 1943-44. The walk between Wolfheze and Papendal ends here. From here you can take the bus to Arnhem Central station via the Museum '40-'45 bus stop, and then take the train to Wolfheze, back to your starting point.
