Made great use of the very historic building it's in. The Airborne 'experience' in the basement was very well done and really engaged my 12 & 15 year old boys. They were interested and engaged and it prompted numerous questions. That's exactly what an exhibit should do. Small cafe did the job and then the museum served as a starting point for a well kept trail with numerous information posts. Really well done.

We visited the Airborne Museum on Saturday and had a great experience! There weren’t many people, so there were no queues and we could take our time exploring. The museum is very well organized and informative, telling the story of Operation Market Garden and the Battle of Arnhem in an engaging way. Inside, there are authentic artifacts, uniforms, weapons, personal stories, and photographs that give a real sense of what happened during the battle. One of the highlights is the immersive light and sound show, which recreates the experience of the fighting, it’s really well done and helps you imagine what the soldiers went through. After exploring the exhibits, we went outside to the small café, which serves food and drinks.. perfect for a short break. There’s also a tank outside, great for taking pictures. Overall, a very interesting and moving museum that’s well worth a visit if you’re interested in WWII history.

One of the most beautiful experiences as a WW2 buff I've ever had. Every single aspect was perfectly curated, and it's current temporary exhibition (as of time of writing) gave me a lot to think. I will never forget that foggy quiet Sunday morning

I visited the Airborne museum at Hartenstein for the first time in Sep 2025, during a motorcycle trip from the UK. I booked in advance and the staff were helpful in changing my visit day by email. The entrance to the museum itself is accessed from the "Klein Hartenstein" restaurant so if you go into the car park of that premises which is only accessible from the main road and it is a short walk less than 200 metres to the museum. Although the building itself is relatively small there is plenty to see on the inside, with a clearly signed layout to follow and see the museum. The Airborne simulation which showed a glider borne landing which starts in a plane carriage and leads onto various simulations of battle scenes from Arnhem with lighting and sound is well worth a look. Unfortunately this one was a flying visit, I'll be back.

Absolutely worth visiting if you are in the area. It's a really good museum and the diorama display in the basement is really well done. Definitely get the audio headset. The grounds are also very nice. The Airborne Cemetery is also a very moving place and it is only a very short drive away.
