Standing 22 meters tall, this white travertine pillar commemorates the Dutch victims of World War II. It serves as the focal point of the annual National Remembrance of the Dead held every May 4th. Designed by J.J.P. Oud, with sculptures by John Rädecker and Paul Grégoire, it was officially unveiled by Queen Juliana in 1956. The central pillar features symbolic reliefs representing suffering, resistance, and the victory of peace. Two lion statues—symbols of the Dutch nation—flank the front. Behind the monument, twelve urns contain soil from the eleven provinces of the Netherlands and from the former Dutch East Indies (Indonesia).

Hyggeligt sted lige midt i Amsterdam. Mange mennesker, hyggelige caféer. Ligger lige overfor kongeslottet, Madame Tussauds og tæt ved shopping.

👏👏
