Directions

​​Before the war, there was an airfield to the north of Vlissingen. Its northern side lay within what was then the municipality of West-Souburg.​

​​In 1943, a hospital bunker was built here on Marnixplein on the orders of the Royal Netherlands Air Force. The entire airfield, along with all its defences, has disappeared as a result of Vlissingen’s expansion. This bunker is therefore the only structure that still serves as a reminder of Vlissingen’s aviation history.
