On the site of the castle of Arcen (South-East Netherlands near Venlo) years ago there were planted gardens as a tourist attraction which attract thousands of tourists from the Netherlands and abroad. It is called the Kasteeltuinen (Castle Gardens).
Peter was asked to put on some displays at the castle of our wargames terrain and figures with connection to the region in which the castle is situated. As this was done already in 2018 he of course was delighted to do this.
Some impressions of the gardens underneath followed by the two displays:

A pleasure to look at these and maybe one day to see them 'in the flesh' so to speak:).

We hope Crisis is on this year but we have not seen anything about them yet.
Will, thanks
Jan and Peter,
today I visited Arcen. At that moment I didn't know about your display and whilst I wasoutside minding the dog, my wife excitedly told me to go upstairs inside the castle because there were a lot of wargame soldiers on show.
When I entered the room I immediately thought of you guys, I even looked for the signature Milka cow.
I was about to mail you and ask if those were indeed your miniatures and terrain when I stumbled upon this post.
Nice job, wonderfull display.
Hoping to meet again ...sometime
Petetr
Peter, thanks for the nice remarks and maybe a next time at Crisis!
