Het verzetsmuseum Gouda

The Resistance Museum Gouda is an impressive and educational museum located in the heart of the city. This special museum tells the story of life during the Second World War and the bravery of the resistance in Gouda and the surrounding region.

You’ll find original documents, photographs, objects and personal stories of people who stood up against the German occupiers. The museum shows how ordinary citizens had to make difficult choices in a time of war, oppression and danger.

For children and young people, there are interactive presentations and treasure hunts that help bring the history to life in an engaging way.

A visit to the Resistance Museum Gouda is not only educational but also deeply moving. The museum highlights the importance of freedom, courage and solidarity — both in the past and today.
