Perimeter Route Marker 5: Ommershof

This is a marker of the Perimeter Route. On this route you walk in the footsteps of the Allies who tried to liberate this region in September 1944. Follow the route and discover not only impressive locations and historical events, but also personal stories from civilians and soldiers who were present at these places during the Battle of Arnhem.

Ommershof stood on the high ground at the northern edge of the perimeter. When the British troops withdrew from Hotel Dreyeroord, the troops at Ommershof also had to leave their positions.
