    (Translated by Google) You simply have to have been here. I've been there many times and I always discover something new. Everyone should know the history of the Red Cross and the voluntary work, because it is also the history of Germany. For young and old. 5 stars because the Red Cross is for the whole family to learn about memories or new things. (Original) Hier muss man einfach mal gewesen sein. Ich bin schon viele Male dort gewesen und entdecke immer wieder etwas Neues. Die Geschichte des Roten Kreuzes und die ehrenamtliche Arbeit sollte jeder kennen, denn es ist auch die Geschichte Deutschlands. FĂĽr Jung und Alt. 5 Sterne, denn das Rote Kreuz ist fĂĽr die ganze Familie, ĂĽber Erinnerungen oder Neues zu lernen.

    We loved it. The location, the history of the site and the current use of this site is great. The exhibitions are very good. If you go with children, the Nature one is worth it. We then spent most of the day exploring the facilities, running on the athletics track, enjoying the views

    The Rotkreutz Museum is located in the former barracks of the Belgian Army. A very impressive terrain. For those interested in history.

    Ordensburg Vogelgang on Lake Urft, a historically very interesting place, unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to see everything but I'll definitely do it again.

    (Translated by Google) A beautiful museum in a special location. The museum continues to develop to present the Red Cross story in a contemporary way. (Original) Een mooi museum op een bijzondere lokatie. Het museum ontwikkeld zich steeds verder om het Rode Kruis verhaal op een eigentijdse manier weer te geven.

    Das größte deutsche Rotkreuzmuseum und auf über 800qm eine tolle Reise durch die Zeit. Von 1859 bis heute interessante Themen und Ausstellungsstücke. Am besten mit einer Führung durch einen Referenten der Rotkreuz-Akademie Vogelsang ip buchen und erleben

    Nice Museum, not too big but a nice overview of a small collection. It is impressive to immediately look at the rest of the park and let it sink in what has happened here.

    (Translated by Google) And I have to say that the word "impressive" does not nearly do justice to this huge complex created here. Even today, despite occupation after the war by the British and later also by the Belgian military, ideological and artistic designs of the Nazi era can still be found on this site. For example, on a tour through the grounds, the party eagle of the NSDAP can be admired. Likewise, a five-meter-high statue, called the torchbearer. It symbolizes the Nazi ideology of the Aryan master race. Every kilometer driven here is definitely worth it, in order to be particularly close to German history. (Original) Und ich muss schon sagen, dass das Wort "beeindruckend" zu diesen riesigen geschaffenen Komplex hierbei nicht annähernd gerecht wird. Auf diesem Gelände lassen sich auch noch heute, trotz Besetzung nach dem Krieg durch die Briten und später auch vom belgischen Militär, noch immer Ideologisch-künstlerische Gestaltungen der NS Zeit finden. So lässt sich hier bei einem Rundgang durch das Gelände zum Beispiel der Parteiadler der NSDAP bestaunen. Ebenso eine fünf Meter hohe Statue, genannt der Fackelträger. Sie symbolisiert nach der NS-Ideologie den arischen Herrenmenschen. Jeder noch so weit gefahrene Kilometer hier herzu, ist es definitiv wert, um der deutsche Geschichte besonders nah sein zu dürfen.

    You should plan the whole day for Vogelsang, watch a lot and walk around a lot and there is also something to eat.

    The RK Museum Vogelsang IP is always worth a visit. The team is super friendly, you learn a lot about the history and nature of the largest humanitarian movement in the world - all embedded in a place of the darkest German history. Where the Nazi elites were supposed to internalize the inhumane system of National Socialist terror, a place of encounter and communication of humanity was created. It is precisely this contrast that makes the museum unique.

    Very impressive place with a beautiful view. The current use of the place is also very successful. Through the museum you can learn a lot about the dark past of the order castle. The local gastronomy is very good

    Liebevoll eingerichtetes Museum, das seine Exponate mit großer Sorgfalt zusammengetragen hat. Die Führung war weit mehr als nur interessant. Wir waren mit unserem DRK Ortsverein vor Ort. Uns wurden viele Anekdoten und persönliche Erfahrungen mitgeteilt. Ich empfehle nicht nur jedem Rotkreuzler einen Besuch. 5 Sterne, die ich sehr gerne vergebe.

    (Translated by Google) Huge complex, this former Ordensburg of the NSDAP. I wondered what the purpose of preserving the buildings is. She seems completely out of date to me. (Original) Riesige Anlage, diese ehemalige Ordensburg der NSDAP. Ich fragte mich, welchen Zweck der Erhalt der Gebäude hat. Mir scheint sie völlig aus der Zeit gefallen.

    (Translated by Google) Went to the Vogelsang Red Cross Museum yesterday. I was very impressed by the exhibits and their presentation. Anyone who is near Aachen or in the North Eifel area should take a look at this. Calling ahead is advisable. (Original) Gestern im Rotkreuzmuseum Vogelsang gewesen. Ich war sehr beeidruckt vo den Exponaten und ihrer Darstellung. Wer mal in der Nähe von Aachen oder im Bereich der Nordeifel ist, sollte sich dies mal anschauen. Vorher anrufen ist ratsam.

  • 4/5 Mathias V. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The museum is very interesting because of the history of the place itself. There could be more activities that have to do with nature, which by the way is beautiful. (Original) Interesantísimo el museo por la histórica propia del lugar. Podrían haber más actividades que tengan que ver con lo natural, que por cierto es hermoso.
