National Holocaust Museum

• View on Map

In early 2024, the museum is scheduled to reopen. At present, the Hollandsche Schouwburg is in the middle of a renovation project. During the Second World War, the German occupiers used this theatre as a detention centre for Jews who had been ordered to report for transportation. Tens of thousands of men, women and children were taken from here to concentration camps and death camps. After the war, it became a place of remembrance and reflection. Voices of people who have been persecuted and murdered and of those who survived, will guide the visitor around. They tell about the theatre in the years before, during and after the war. A new work of art enhances the visitor experience in this profoundly moving place.
