Visit Camp Vught and Camp Amersfoort on a private WWII remembrance journey with Dutch historical researcher and storyteller Martin van Elmpt of Tour Guides for You.
Both camps played an important role in the German occupation of the Netherlands, but in very different ways. We explore the sites, memorials and personal stories of prisoners, resistance members, forced labourers and victims, while placing both camps in the wider history of persecution and occupation.
This is a private historical journey, adapted to your pace, interests and knowledge. If your main aim is to visit one former camp rather than two, ask me about Westerbork as an alternative. For many visitors it is the more extensive and rewarding camp site, with more to see and a powerful connection to the deportation of Dutch Jews.
If you have a family connection or specific story you want to explore, tell me in advance. It’s your day, your journey—the idea behind Tour Guides for You.
