As one of the English speaking guides I'm wondering why you didn't follow an English tour? From what I can tell from the video, you just followed a Dutch group, I guess you didn't even had a briefing (ca. 25 minute slideshow)?
@alanheath Hah, I hope it doesn't anger any of the locals. Btw, with the exception of the exterior, it seems they did too good a job renovating the fort. I wish they would have preserved some of the damage caused by those hollows.

@JunkersFEE There was not any. The choice was Dutch or nothing. I attended the briefing afterwards though!

Looks like the fort is more efficiently run today with all those mannequins!

@lemonite1 I will add that comment to my speech the next time I talk of Eben Emael!

I think the damage has been preserved quite well. On the roof the bullet marks are still clearly visible!
