This is a large, park-like, urban cemetery that has several monuments erected to honor the dead of World War II. The Geuzen Grave was erected in memory of four resistance fighters who died in Berlin, Germany in 1942. A second monument honors the 56,000 victims of the German Buchenwald concentration camp. The monument was built in 1952 and shows two hands holding an urn that contains soil from various Nazi concentration camps in Europe. Another monument is dedicated to the “Fallen for the Fatherland,” and commemorates eight Dutch soldiers who died in or near Amsterdam during the first days of the war in 1940. A fourth monument was erected in memory of six resistance members executed for, among other things, their roles in the publication of an illegal magazine called De Waarheid. There also are 323 graves of allied soldiers who died here during the Second World War. Of these graves, about fifty remain unidentified. The soldiers are from the United States, Great Britain, New Zealand, Australia, Poland, and Canada.
