The meaning of a place

National monument Kamp Amersfoort is a place of mémoir et miroir. Of reflection, remembrance and, above all, looking ahead: What happened here and what can we learn from it?

The publication The Meaning of a Place pursues remembrance as a design theme and shows the emotionally charged history of this place of commemoration. The book unveils the relationship between the history, the traces in the landscape and the design of the new underground museum and the existing memorial centre.
