Perimeter Route Marker 15: The Poles at Driel

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.

On September 21, Polish troops under Major General Sosabowski landed at Driel. Only a small part of the troops managed to reach the perimeter, but their support was vital.
