Amsterdam, Memorial for the former House of Detention


Memorial for the former House of Detention

The monument recalls that during World War II the building was used by the Security Service and Gestapo as a prison for political prisoners.

It is a split boulder, whose two halves are pushed half over each other. The halves are secured together by a stainless steel anchoring. The whole is placed on a solid polished metal leg.
