Museum · 1 h 30 · Casemates, cannons and the story of the star-shaped town in the Turfpoort bastion, with audio guide. €13.50; €6 for ages 5 to 12. Closed Mondays.

Naarden is a star-shaped town: six bastions, double ramparts and a double moat, one of the best-preserved fortresses in Europe and part of the Dutch Water Defence Lines, a World Heritage Site. The Vestingmuseum is inside one of those bastions, the Turfpoort, and you visit it inside and out: the soldiers' underground casemates, the cannons on the rampart and the story of how Naarden defended Amsterdam from attacks from the east, from the Spanish to Napoleon.
Opening hours and tickets
Tuesday to Sunday, 10:30 to 17:00; closed on Mondays. It costs €13.50 with audio guide for adults and €6 for ages 5 to 12; there is no need to book. Some Sundays there is a Schuttersdag, with soldiers from 1815 and cannon fire: check the calendar. There is a café with cake and hot sandwiches.
Getting there
From Naarden-Bussum station, take bus 110, about 10 minutes to the Westwalstraat stop, a hundred metres away. By car, park at Bastion Nieuw Molen, five minutes away.
