It’s almost 80 years since the Netherlands was liberated, following 5 years of occupation. During that time the population was brutally suppressed.
Jews and other groups were deported and murdered as war raged through Europe.
In this podcast series - brought to you by the British Embassy in the Hague - we look at the impact of occupation and the holocaust on the Netherlands, the process of liberating the Netherlands, and the continued importance today of remembering what happened in the Netherlands.

Remembering Together: Episode 1 - Camp Westerbork
It has been almost 80 years since the Netherlands was liberated following 5 years of

Westerbork was used as a deportation camp by Nazi Germany during this time.
In this episode of Remembering Together, British Deputy Ambassador to the
