Monument to Englanders - Remembering Heroes of World War II

Around park: 10km

The bronze sculpture "Freedom Forward ’ is a special and meaningful memorial commemorating the heroic Englanders of World War II. These brave men and women risked their lives by fleeing to England by sea, determined to join the Allies and fight for the freedom of their homeland.

While strolling along Katwijk's promenade, you can admire this impressive monument, located in a prominent spot in the dunes. It is more than just a work of art; it is a symbol of the brave efforts and heavy sacrifices made in the fight against oppression.

This monument invites reflection and tribute to those who risked their lives for a better future. A visit to "Freedom Forward ’ is not only a step back in history, but also a moment to reflect on the value of freedom and courage.
