    Er worden (op afspraak) rondleidingen gegeven door een fortgids. De rondleiding duurt ongeveer anderhalf uur en in die tijd komt u alles te weten over de waterlinie, inundatie, brisantgranaten, fortbatterijen, houwitsers, de wasvrouw, vleermuizen en andere fortwetenswaardigheden. Daarnaast bestaat de mogelijkheid een hilarische training 'Algemene Fortvaardigheden' met Korporaal Pirelli en Sergeant Vredestein te ondergaan.

    English
    Tours are given by appointment. This takes about 90 minutes and during this time you will learn everything about the New Dutch Waterline, flooding, high-explosive shells, fortbatteries, howitzers, the laundry woman, bats and other fort knowledge.

    The 2nd weekend in September is Open Monument Day in the whole country. At Fort Vechten you will find "Roman soldiers" and you can "storm" the fort while infantry and artillery will try to hold off the enemy with roaring canons and blasting fire arms.

    About ten military groups will present themselves.
