With this Escape the City Tour you will see the highlights of Wageningen. A few you can see below.

Museum De Casteelse Poort in Wageningen is a cultural history museum located in a villa built on the foundations of the town's 16th-century castle. Its permanent exhibitions cover 5,000 years of local history, including the city's medieval development, tobacco industry, and the role of Wageningen University. A notable exhibit focuses on World War II, featuring artifacts from the 1945 German surrender signed in nearby Hotel De Wereld, highlighting Wageningen's significance as the 'City of Liberation' .

The National Liberation Monument in Wageningen commemorates the end of World War II and the liberation of the Netherlands. Located near Hotel de Wereld—where the German surrender was signed in 1945—it symbolizes peace, freedom, and remembrance. Each year on May 5th, the monument plays a central role in the national Liberation Day celebrations.

The Bassecour in Wageningen is a historic complex originally built in 1750 by Baron Torck van Rozendael, consisting of four grand townhouses set back from the street, creating an elegant forecourt. In 1880, it became the main building of the Wageningen Agricultural University but was later abandoned and fell into disrepair. In 1998, Roelofs & Haase transformed the structure into 24 stylish apartments, preserving the original façade and architectural details while modernizing the interior, thus maintaining its 18th-century charm.
