There has been a large German bunker on the Noorderpier of Hoek van Holland since 1943. This bunker, a gun bunker of type 611, was part of the infamous 'Atlantikwall' during the Second World War.
In recent years, this gun bunker has been transformed into the new visitors center by volunteers. In the museum, the story of the Atlantic Wall is told using dioramas, information panels, images and sound material and authentic objects. Guided tours of the former German anti-aircraft battery 'Nordmole' or even other parts of the former 'Fortress Hoek van Holland' are regularly organized.

The Atlantic Wall Museum is entirely devoted to bunkers from the Second World War, located along the Nieuwe Waterweg and the North Sea.
