How did German missile attacks affect Antwerp during World War II?

Following the liberation of Antwerp in 1944, the city’s port remained largely intact, serving as a vital supply hub for Allied forces advancing against Nazi Germany.12

Despite the port's strategic importance, the city suffered significant devastation due to bombardment by German missiles. These weapons, which included V-1 missiles and V-2 rockets, were part of a broader German offensive intended to disrupt Allied operations and morale. While the port was instrumental in the final Allied efforts to defeat the Nazi regime, the missile attacks caused widespread destruction throughout the city and its suburbs.13
