Walk of freedom

Inholland University of Applied Sciences students together with the archivists at the Provincial Historical Archive developed a historic walk to commemorate 75 years of freedom. A stroll along 25 monuments, buildings and statues to reflect on WWII, peace and freedom. The walk of freedom will be accessible as soon as the coronavirus restrictions have been lifted. Until then you can follow the shorter, digital version of the walk.

(for the Dutch version of the walk of freedom go to Vrijheidswandeling).
