Municipality of Weesp Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

When you are interested in military history, the fortresses of the defense line of Amsterdam are a must see.  Build around 1900, it consists of some 46 fortresseses, batteries, dikes, dams and locks. The enemy was partly kept out by inundating the land outside the defense line. The invention of the airplane was a real spoiler for military strategists... 

Note: this fortress, Bastion de Bakkerschans, is not open to the public, but many other fortresses are. http://www.stellingvanamsterdam.nl/en/home

Great location and the room was perfect, enough space for all of us with an en-suite as well, shower was hot and powerful. The check in process was very easy and (although we didn’t use them) the option to leave bags in lockers was a nice touch. We had a lovely stay here!
