Cycle Route Wings of Freedom: Central Memorial
During World War Two 28 aircraft crashed in the municipalities of Bergen, Gennep, Mook & Middelaar and Weeze. In 2020 memorials were erected at the crash locations and bicycle routes of approximately 30 - 40 km have been developed along these locations. Near the memorial for Lancaster ED-449 is this central Wings of Freedom memorial.
