Klein Amerika Groesbeek

Klein Amerika near Groesbeek was one of the landing sites during Operation Market Garden. Hundreds of American Waco gliders landed here in September 1944.

In 2014, one was recreated at full size. Military personnel from the U.S. 82nd Division - the same as then - unveiled the glider monument.

Children still sometimes want to use it as a climbing device, much to the annoyance of the promoters: it is a monument.
