Great network of bunkers and context. Love the holiday jets flying over the anti aircraft guns how times change ! Lots of archival items bring the place to life.
It is a very interesting place with many things to see. It shows things about both world wars and you even get a free audio guide. It is definitely worth the price and I highly recommend checking it out.
Spending three hours at Atlantikwall Raversyde was like stepping back in time. It’s a must-visit for anyone keen on experiencing history up close and personally. Free parking is about 5-10 minutes walking distance.
Es war sehr Interessant und aufschlussreich. Es gibt zur jeder Station Infos per Audioguide ( Auch in Deutsch)

Es Ist eine Zeitreise der Besonderen Art.

Kann ich einfach nur empfehlen.

Beide Weltkriege sind dort vertreten und der Preis von 10 Euro lohnt sich wirklich.

Die Betreiber setzten alles daran um diese Anlage gut und sauber zu erhalten.
Man fühlt sich in eine andere Zeit versetzt wenn man durch die langen Laufgräben läuft. Sehr empfehlenswert. Sehr gut erhalten. 10€ kostet der Eintritt für Erwachsene pro Person. Ist es allemal Wert.
Tolle und sachliche Erklärungen, der Preis ist wirklich angemessen. Für Kinder auch sehr interessant und einfach erklärt. Würde definitiv nochmal hingehen. Es gibt auch einen Audioguide in 4 Sprachen für noch mehr Informationen.

Für Personen ab 1,80cm wird es etwas schwieriger in den Tunnelabschnitten.
Bonito paseo entre vegetación y lindas esculturas, le falta mantenimiento.
The Garden of Sculptures is located just next to the Royal Museum of Fine Arts on Rue de la Régence. This is a small garden with some interesting contemporary sculptures. It is believed that the garden is also located on the site of an 18th-century botanical garden because of the unique tree species that can be found here.

There is a fountain and park benches to sit while viewing the sculptures. A decent place for a brief rest before/after your museum visit. Otherwise, if you are interested in gardens with monument viewing, make sure to also visit the Jardin du Petit Sablon just 50-60 metres down the street from here as well. There you will find lovely landscaping and impressive statues of historic Belgian figures of history.
This open air museum park filled with all sorts of sculptures is definitely worth a visit! It is easily accessible from the city by tram. The park is free and there is also a little cafe in it.
Très beau !

Une nature un peu sauvage dû à un manque d'entretien et sale par le manque de civisme des gens .

Cela mérite d'être vu .
Absolutely beautiful artsy park about 3.5 km from Antwerp Central Station and easily accessible by bus, car or bike. Strikes a good balance between art and park with an amazing array of contemporary art which are displayed in the open air. There is also a wide range of unique trees which are appropriately labelled. Not too many people and tourists. Free entry and they have an app that can help in navigating through the park and identifying the art. If you want to lose yourself in thought, immerse yourself in nature while enjoying beautiful pieces of art, there is no better place in Belgium. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Antwerp and with some time to spare.
Very nice park for a bit of leasure. It is very quiet and calm and therefore perfect for chilling on the grass. The sculptures are nice. There is a big variety of them of many different art styles.
