Nice video

Did the museum told you about Audie Murphy??

The 3rd Reich used USSR weapons SVT-40, T 34, KV 1, Pps! The Wehrmacht used 64 Tanks of the USSR for battles, as well as the Russian army of Ron and Roa, who fought against the Reds + there are alterations, if you get close you can immediately see that the Germans made the tank for themselves! The tank was easy to repair, but there was a problem with the shells! The first Panther tank was made as a good copy of the T 34! Hitler freaked out and the tank was redone!;))))

This guy is a coincedence theorist. There is no coincedence

terrible museum

Pretty much the worst museum in the Netherlands, lot of fake items, fake stories, like the fake T34 outside. They also had Hitlers furniture from the bunker in Berlin at one point which was also fake.

Did my national service there in 1954-56. It’s changed a bit since then.

A major part of Denmark was under Prussia during WWI. So thousands of Danish men had to fight in that war. The Danish National Archives estimate the losses of Danes in the German forces at 6,000. Over 700 Danish merchant sailors and fisherman died, mostly due to vessels torpedoed by German submarines.

Hey buddy there is also a MOD bunker in lampeter

Is the T-34/85 a "Beute fahrzeug" ( German trophy) from the battle?!

Not Holland, the Netherlands. The tank is of course Russian (must have been captured), the gun is German, the famous 88........

Why is there a russian T34 disguised as a panther tank ?

Good God , get a haircut and a shave dude if you want to film youre piehole , it's disgusting 🙄🙄👎👎👎👎

We were there at that moment, saw our car.😂 I think you hear us talking with a guide of the museum.😁

Did you visit the Airborne Museum while in Arnhem / Oosterbeek ?

Great WW2 museum.

I haven't visited this new Museum but the old had an open yard with barbed wire and posts from a German KZ. A few years ago I visited KZ Buchenwald where several Danes, also the Police, became interned!

What i know of and was told, then they have 1 of the only remaning Freikorps Dänemark uniforms left in the world, i may be wrong, maybe there is some in private collections.

When you visited, the Memorial was all back to front due to the redevelopment work, but as of 23 September 2024, the old entrance (now called the Commemorative Entrance) reopened, and the Memorial now has a logical flow again. The flow makes much more sense when you start at the front, either with the Roll of Honour and Hall of Memory and then through to First World War Gallery and the rest, or start with FWW and do the Roll of Honour at the end of the galleries. In January 2025, the massive new main entrance will open, and the Memorial will start to see some of the massibely expanded gallery space open up. Aircraft Hall closes in January 2025 for at least 12 months, to enable the link to the brand new ANZAC Hall to be completed and toallow for it to have its major exhibitions re-mounted.

Might be unwarented but, here is a ww2 "the more you know" thingy: Denmark’s resistance during WWII is a remarkable story of unity. Despite the Nazi annexation, which allowed the Danish government to remain in place and initially imposed milder restrictions, brave resistance groups quickly formed. They gathered intelligence for the Allies and undertook daring sabotage missions. One of their most extraordinary acts was the rescue of over 7,000 Jews in September 1943. After German diplomat Georg Duckwitz learned of Hitler’s deportation orders, he secretly organized their escape to Sweden and alerted Danish authorities. In just days, a network of resistance fighters, Jewish leaders, and ordinary citizens worked together to save lives. While some Jews were sent to concentration camps, over 99% ultimately survived, aided by the Danish-Swedish "white bus" missions. Duckwitz was honored as one of the 'Righteous Among the Nations,' but the resistance preferred collective recognition, highlighting the power of community and courage in dark times.

Tito was portrayed bye Richard Burton in the 1974 warmovie about Tito. A must watch now.

Max Manus mentioned

Schalburg corps & Sven Hassel.

I'd say you missed out on the audio guide. There are some cool voice acting plays with different situations that match some og the different settings you walked past... it is based on real persons and situations and gives you a really good feeling of how the ppl were feeling back then... Some of those I remember were a group of resistance ppl making flyers in a kitchen, being scared to be found by the german soldiers. Another was about a group of ppl having to recieve a parachute drop in the dark on a field, being afraid if the incoming planes might be german fighters instead....

Funny fact - One of the Deadliest Wars for the Danish soldiers was the Eastern Front ww2 And ww1 30.000 Danish soldiers were forced to join the German army Around 6000 died

Then millions of fools go rushing into the breech for king and country.

This is the "new" museum, the old had a fire in 2013. Luckily the damage to artifacts was limited to water and ash/sod

Arms museum not war museum last time I checked

An interesting note about the ship models on display is that many are not models made for the exhibition - they are in fact original scale construction models made as part of the planning process for new navy ships, all of which were kept after the fact and later left in the care of the Danish Naval Museum, which has now been rolled into the War Museum. So really, they're not models of navy ships, rather they're the 'blueprints' the navy ships were based on. A model on display could easily be an original from the 1700s :)

The boat at 4:45 was used to sail jews to safety in Sweden. 95% of the danish jews survived. Even the danish jews in the Theresienstadt concentration camp mostly survived due to pressure from Denmark.

They receive "Free Samples" of new weapons from several Major International Factories and the Collection here is sometimes more complete than the Factory's own, so if in doubt, they become asked!!! They have a collection of weapons bought for Tests for the Danish Army and - Navy many years back. And also, equipment for Danish weapon Production! Also, The Rasmussen Revolving Guns may have changed the Border War in 1864 if used by then?

In past time a 38cm gun barsel was on display out in the yard , it came from the german warship Tirpitz that was bombed by RAF in 1944 - Four of the guns was salvaged and sent to denmark to be placed in a new build bunker complex at a place called Blåvandshug , the Four 38cm skc34 barrels Got stück at a railstation at the end of the war - 3 barrels Got cut up in pieces at the scrap man and saves before being Melsted and the one 109 tons that survived was sent by rail ti copenhagen were it sat outside for many years before it ended up at the huge bunker festung at Hanstholm at display among the 4 canonemplacements - sadly enough 2 of the bunkers was filled up with sand sometime in the 1980 so only 2 Can be seen - i place to see endeed

Fun fact. Where the Leopard currently sits. There used to be a great big gun barrel on the ground, set up on blocks. It was a replecement barrel for one of the german battleships. Except it never got further than Copenhagen. Either because the ship sank, or the country was liberated. I can never quite remember which... Also: On the subject of the Yugo wars. I know a guy who served in NORBAT-2. The stories he tell...

In my younger years me and some friends restored , almost to perfection and driveable , a Hanomag Sdkfz 251 / D . We spent thousands of hours after school on sanding it down and repairing stuff aso ,as we were almost fanatic about it . Then , when it was painted and 99 % i order , some IDIOT !!! swapped it for some totaly garbage from Germany . We were NEVER TOLD that that was the whole idea of the vehicle , so we were very sad and angry when we found out . And nobody would take the responsibility for it . I have not been in the museum since , it hurts to much . 😒

well one of the fun things that danes usually never mention is that they lost more men fighting on the russian front than they ever did resisting the germans

13:00 it is technically not "civil war uniforms" It was an exchange done in 1858. so more then two years before the war broke out. One set of infantry and one set of cavalry kits was exchanged between the danish army and US army. Some of the items are unique (like the Maclellan saddle that to my knowledge do not exist in the original model in the US)

Used to be really top end museum with a fantastic collection on display - now it's dumbed down and mediocre 😢

The WW2 SECTION WOULD BE. The Germans invaded we were ordered into barracks to not fight, so other countries fought the Germans for us. Danish military history in WW2 is an embarrassment for any Dane.

It’s changed since my last visit

It’s a great little museum they showed me thr book where my grandad signed up in ww2 very emotional to see his signature

Good content, as always. 💚

My parents, my sister and I had lunch together at The Horse & Guardsman Inn. It was a few yards from Trafalgar Square. I had fish & chips.

Don't be a jerker ,give citizenship to a Gurkha

As you said, some exhibits were removed for the construction. The Lancaster bomber 'G for George', Japanese midget sub and a short film by Peter Jackson on planes in the First World War. While Mephisto was on loan to the memorial for a period, I believe it's back in Queensland. The construction area when you were going down stairs was where the pre WW1 exhibit was if I remember correctly. I hope you were able to do a free guided tour off camera, the insight they provide is amazing.

NOT pure coincidence! numbers matter! theres a synchronous connect!!

synchronicity! re numbers>>> the plate of the auto FF was riding in reads: A III I8...or A for Armistice; II is eleven>> II is for November; and of course ((19)) 18...strange, eh?

😮😮

Ggoood😊😊

Another interesting piece Mr. Dale 👌
