Hollandsche Schouwburg | Opens early 2024

At present, the Hollandsche Schouwburg is in the middle of a renovation project. During the Second World War, the German occupiers used this theatre as a detention centre for Jews who had been ordered to report for transportation. Tens of thousands of men, women and children were taken from here to concentration camps and death camps. After the war, it became a place of remembrance and reflection. 

In early 2024, we hope to reopen the Hollandsche Schouwburg as a place of remembrance. Voices of people who have been persecuted and murdered and of those who survived, guide the visitor around. They tell about the theater in the years before, during and after the war. A new work of art enhances the visitor experience in this profoundly moving place.
