  • Stolpersteine

    Take a journey through history. All over Hilversum you can find the so-called Stolpersteine. Each of these cubic shaped concrete stones have a brass plate. If you look closely, you’ll see a text engraved in them. The Stolpersteine have been placed in locations where Jews were evicted or murdered. Many Jews do not have a grave, but in this way, they get a name and can be remembered. See which people used to live in Hilversum and learn more about the history of this city in an interactive way.
