Those with interest in Operation Market Garden and the associated US, British and Polish airdrops leading up to the push towards Arnhem may find this website of interest. It lists a lot of the memorials and museums in the area - and there are a lot. I've been to all four of these museums of different bike trips
1) Museums- Hartenstein Hotel in Arnhem has a distinct focus on that part of the battle.
2) The National War and Resistance Museum - Oorlogsmuseum in Overloon is the biggest collection I've seen in Holland with lots of heavy equipment, display of artillery shells, etc. The collection is a mix of WW2 right through to some 60s / 70s stuff. Well worth a 1/2 day
3) Museum Wings of Liberation, in Best has a focus on the airborne battle around Eindhoven and the Son Bridge. Commentary is mostly in Dutch. The museum covers 4 buildings but is quite small. It has a variety of half tracks, several quad 50s, various German Anti-aircraft Guns (a twin barrel 37mm - not seen one of these before), a Dakota, a replica glider (ex-Saving Private Ryan) and of course the obligatory BMW and Zundapp war era motorbikes. They have a 1930s German sound detection system (pre-dates radar) - I've never seen one of these anywhere else.
4) National Libetration Museum 1944-45 in Groesbeek. This focusses on the Dutch experience of WW2 and the airborne landings.

You can shape quite a nice wee tour around the various museums, sites and memorials.
If you explore the website a bit more there are listings of historical WW2 sites cross Europe.
