This is a 1948 replica of the bridge made famous in the film A Bridge Too Far. John Frost was the commander of the unsuccessful British assault on the original bridge during the 1944 Battle of Arnhem. The original bridge was destroyed by an allied air raid after the battle to deny its use to German forces.
John Frost Bridge is the road bridge over the Lower Rhine at Arnhem, in the Netherlands. The bridge was inaugurated after the end of World War II, and is named after Major-General John Dutton Frost (1912–1993), who commanded the British forces that reached and temporarily defended the pre-existing Rijnbrug at the same location during the Battle of Arnhem in September 1944. This was the bridge referenced in the 1977 Anglo-American film A Bridge Too Far, although the IJssel bridge in Deventer was used for the actual shooting of the film.

This is an information centre with display panels and audio/video presentations about the Battle of Arnhem. Large windows at the centre overlook the river and the John Frost Bridge, the objective of the battle. There are staff present to answer questions. The centre is a branch of the Airborne Museum Hartenstein in Oosterbeek.
This Baroque-style city gate was built in 1642 and is the only surviver of four original city gates.
Besides many photos of Arnhem's tram, trolley and diesel buses, the museum also features numerous items of public transit paraphernalia mostly in display cases. The museum also has a working trolley bus switch mounted on the ceiling of one of the rooms. The museum's owner may guide you through the rooms.

Huis van Maarten van Rossem
This 15th century house was once owned by Maarten van Rossem. Today it belongs to the city and is used as the mayor's office. Duivelshuis literally means Devil's house owing its name to the satyrs on the front facade.
This medieval church has high towers equipped with a glass elevator and a panoramic viewing platform. The church hall is closed due to renovations until September 2019, but the towers remain open.
