Bunkers on Terschelling, the Tigerstelling with a German-speaking guide
Discover the history of the bunkers. During World War II, the Tigerstellung played a vital role in aerial warfare. The Germans built the radar system to detect bombers taking off from the United Kingdom. The entire 7-hectare complex comprises 100 bunkers, where over 200 German soldiers lived and worked during the war. During the tour, you'll visit several historically furnished bunkers, and the guide will provide detailed information about the bunker complex and Terschelling during WWII. The tour concludes at the visitor center, where photos, text, and film complement the guide's story. The tour lasts 2 hours and is conducted in German. Dutch-language tours can be booked through the Tourist Information Office (VVV). There is limited parking at the Tigerstellung, and ample bicycle racks are available for parking your bike.

Bunkermuseum
Bunkermuseum
For decades, the "Tiger Defence Line" from World War II, with its hidden stories, remained virtually invisible. The former canteen building has been transformed into a fascinating exhibition and reception area. There's plenty to do in the museum. For example, there's a treasure hunt for children, and you can book a guided tour on our website, which will lead you on a journey of discovery through various impressive structures. Prepare to be amazed! GPS Game: An informative GPS game has now been developed for families and groups of (young) adults to play inside and outside the museum. Collaboration and discovery are key. You can find all the information about the game at the museum's visitor center.
