- Earlsferry - with a plaque expressing thanks to the local community from Polish paratroopers
- Falkland - with historic royal links to France and Denmark and a more recent gift of gratitude from Polish paratroopers
- Glenrothes – with the work of a sculptor born in what is now Estonia rising from the earth and German technology providing employment today
- Kirkcaldy - with a memorial to a wartime Polish massacre and a model of a 16th-century German city
- Leven - where, nearby, Polish paratroopers trained for the drop at Arnhem
- Pitscottie - where an intrepid Italian balloonist came out of the sky
- St Andrews – with a wealth of European connections explored in a local EuroWalk and a memorial to an air crew from The Netherlands nearby

If there are too many places to visit on one occasion, come back to Fife another time.
