Our renovated ICB and the corona virus
Our renovated and partly newly-built information center is nearing completion. We are giving it the finishing touch. Designing firm Kingkorn is almost done with the interactive presentation in the experience room. Our renewed information center was scheduled to be opened on April 8. Sadly, corona affects us, too. In this extraordinary situation we are faced with a number of difficult decisions.
The official opening has been canceled
The official opening of our renewed information center is off. At the moment it is still not clear if there will be a reopening ceremony wth invitees and volunteers on a later date.
Information center and tours
The information center will remain closed until RIVM tells us we can open our doors again. There will not be any guided tours on the Canadian cemetery during this period either. We are very sorry for this, but public health is our top priority. We wish you strength in these times of uncertainty.
