Description

Together, we embark on a journey through the untold history of Amsterdam during World War II. We will stroll along beautiful old buildings that stand as silent witnesses to the stories I will narrate. I will recount known and unknown events from various (new) perspectives, drawing from recent research and personal accounts. The extermination of 70,000 Jewish ‘Amsterdammers’ has left voids in the city. These are scars that are barely visible to the naked eye anymore, but ones you will learn not to overlook after our journey.

Includes

History often appears as mere facts when read online, detailing events, dates, and numbers. However, for history to truly resonate, it must become personal. During the tour I aim to transport you as close to time travel as possible by sharing intimate stories of real individuals who experienced these events firsthand. Through original research involving old interviews, books, diaries, and city archives, I will bring these personal narratives to life, allowing you to connect with the past in a deeply meaningful way.
