Kamp Amersfoort National Monument, World War II memorial site in Leusden, Netherlands
The underground museum complex features exhibitions about 47,000 prisoners who endured harsh conditions in this concentration camp during World War II.
The camp operated from 1941 to 1945, serving as a transit facility where prisoners faced forced labor before transfer to other concentration camps.
The memorial includes the stone statue 'Man before the firing squad' by Frits Sieger, marking the location where executions took place during wartime.
Visitors can join guided tours of the outdoor area on weekends and school holidays at 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM to explore monuments and original structures.
Five trees from the wartime period remain standing at the site, serving as living witnesses to the events that occurred during the camp's operation.
