International Homomonument The Hague, LGBTQ+ memorial in Koekamp, Netherlands.
The monument consists of a steel structure rising 740 centimeters on a granite base, featuring blue-gray sections representing awareness and pink elements signifying liberation.
The city council of The Hague approved the memorial initiative in 1985, leading to its first unveiling in 1993 and subsequent relocation to Koekamp in 2015.
The monument holds annual ceremonies on May 4th, Netherlands' remembrance day, with LGBTQ+ choirs performing and community leaders delivering speeches at the site.
The memorial includes an information plaque in four languages explaining its purpose, while the surrounding area provides space for gatherings and commemorative events.
The Foundation International Homomonument reported multiple incidents of vandalism, including anti-gay graffiti in July 2023, prompting swift restoration efforts.
