Westerbork

Subsequent to its use in the 2nd World War, the Westerbork camp was used to house Indonesian refugees. In 1969 the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) was installed on the same site, between the villages of Westerbork and Hooghalen. On the site there is now a museum and several memorials to those transported during the 2nd World War.
