I visited the restaurant but not the museum. The food was great with the price we paid. Nice vibes and friendly staffs.

Excellent sight with many interactive activities for visitors of all ages, with many historic and interesting details provided over the audio guide. The terrace atop the building was also a nice stop, with a nice selection of beverages and warm colourful blankets available for capricious weather moments. The route planned for the visit also allows young ones to put their energy to good use (tunnels, stairs, wood obstacles etc.) if they choose to do so.

Over rated and overpriced. 11€ a ticket was an absolute rip off. Most of the area is a child’s education centre, we also couldn’t visit the top as there was a corporate event on. This place definitely feels like a tourist trap that is milking whatever is left.

Don’t eat in restaurant!! Snail in salad not the escargot kind but, the bad hygiene kind. For your health en safety don’t eat…. Also sour cheese croquettes, staff doesn’t care about problems they just say sorry and tell you they can’t do anything about it. Also the museum seems like a rip off. Just avoid at al cost!!!

Former fort built under Napoleon now hosting a museum and a restaurant. A fort full of history to visit with an audio guide (available at least in Dutch, French and English)... But not much concrete to see, lots of white walls. A little disappointing for the price of entry... 9€ per adult. The acoustics can be disturbing if there are a lot of people, I imagine. The rooftop is worth seeing.

I enjoy visiting this military museum and waking around with friends. Educational entertainment for children inside and outside, bar for parents, easy access with public transport.

Nice place to visit if you have never visited a fort before. Good audio tour - local language is a nice touch for Dutch speaking people. Also an option to have a drink in the local bar.

This place is a-OK. Listed as a museum, but it is also a restaurant. We had the croquettes and they were fabulous. Service left a little to be desired, but they were attending to a wedding. Come here to take in some history, pair it with a beer and light snack while you're at it :)
