Fort Breendonk

During my trip to Brussels, I visited Fort Breendonk (1940-1944). I took a train to Antwerp. If you want to go, you have to change trains in Malvinas (Mechelen), take another train to San Nicolas and get off at Gare Willebroek. There are no directions available. The train ticket cost 11.20 euros return and there was a 7 euro entry fare. It is one of the best preserved areas in Europe. Visitors can see how the people spent their days doing hard labor, see the torture room, the bathrooms, the punishment cells and prison. It's a very moving and powerful place to visit.
