Well presented
Its the 100 year anniversary of reunification and Dybbøl Banke was very much a historic focal point of interest that was an important part of the battles that transpired. The center is a modern commemorative reconstruction of the actual historic area but strategically near the actual windmill. There is an audio visual film room to watch archival film, displays and an outdoor reconstruction of officers and private soldier’s living quarters. There was also a guided tour in Danish.
