War Memorial Beekbergen

A memory of twelve civilians from Beekbergen, Lieren and Oosterhuizen who died.

This monument represents the difficult road one had to take: an increasingly narrower and higher road, ending in a cross...
The monument is made of white limestone, the cross of reddish-brown sandstone.
The years 1940 - 1945 are chiseled on it.
In front of the monument is a stone with the names of 12 civilians who died during the occupation and during the Indonesian Independence War in the former Dutch East Indies:
J.J. Barendsen, E. A. Blom, Hans Blom, K.J. Busser, P.H. Candle Sijpestijn, E. van 't Land, H. Liefers, W. Oxener, J. Schut, G. Tijhof, G. Davelaar, J. Stufken.
