This was one of the three concentration camps in The Netherlands during WO II. These days are exhibits telling personal stories, but you also can walk through the barracks and the watchtower. The barrack is build again and shows how the prisoners were living. The execution site was a shooting place from the army before the war. Here were 329 men killed.
