This was a surprise find on the canal tour of Amsterdam. This solumn-looking monolith is a tribute to the Jews who died in World War II. There is a formal ceremony here once per month. It first appeared on the waterfront in 1988.
The Joods Verzetsmonument is located in the Stopera section of the city. It is near the Opera House and City Hall.
You can read this on it: "Were my eyes fountains of tears then would I weep day and night for the fallen fighters of my beloved people."
