Travelling into the past

Brabant Remembers, Visit Brabant

The latest version of the Brabant Remembers app makes it possible to travel through time to five true stories during the Second World War.

The history books can be pushed aside, because together with your personal guide Flo you will make a unique journey into the past of Brabant. For each story you step through a virtual gate. For example you travel back to the old station in Vught and in another story you are an eyewitness of what happened on the battlefield in Overloon during the end of the war.

This journey through the past introduces you to five war heroes who played a major role in and for Brabant. You will meet station master Willem Jooren, who helped deported Jews escape under the watchful eye of the Germans. Or tank driver Bob Dare, who in the heat of battle was faced with the choice of saving himself or his wounded comrades.

By stepping through these virtual gates, you find yourself in a completely different world together with these war heroes – recorded in volumetric video. This means that you too become part of these stories and are faced with various dilemmas, because if you were in their shoes … what choices would you make?
