WW1 German perspective museum well set out very interesting. The actual gun site still exists a few hundred metres walk away. The town was occupied by the Germans and was a pioneer regiments base. There is a great restaurant on the site well used.

Great small museum with big historical story. Thanks for an older gentleman from service who told us many interesting things about the history of this place.
Museum with few war memorabilia and very confusing. Furthermore, the guides for the touristic groups speak too aloud, so is absolutely impossibile to stay concentrated to listen your audio guide and to read the screens.
Wonderfull museum that gives impression of the opposite side, the Germans. Excellent guide. A must visit!
Myself and three friends travelled from the UK to visit this museum on 8 September 2017. We arrived at 2.30pm in the middle of the advertised opening hours. It was pouring with rain and we found the museum closed and locked up with no notice displayed as to the reason why. We asked at the nearby cafe and they said that it should have been open. I have emailed the proprietor to ask the reason and my mail has been ignored. I would not recommend a visit to this museum on the off-chance that it will be open, even when it should be.
It's a very nice war museum in flanders fields, not so far from Ypers, that explains history of the first world war around the region and history about the largest cannon in that time. You can even see the place where the cannon was located. The cannon itself is gone, but that doesn't mean that the remaining site isn't impressive to see. Also the cafeteria next to the museum is handy to drink a nice Belgium beer :) It's only 10 km from Ijzertoren Diksmuide, so it's also easy to go there for a visit.
Not too much to see other than the platform on which Lange Max sat.
Great museum with lots of interesting information.
