Hundreds of people gathered on Sunday in Amsterdam for the National Holocaust Remembrance Day. At the Mirror Monument in Wertheim Park, people remembered how the Auschwitz concentration camp was liberated 79 years ago. At 11 a.m., the participants in a silent march reached the park from Amsterdam City Hall. Outgoing Prime Minister Mark Rutte, Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema, and South African Ambassador to the Netherlands Vusi Madonsela were at the forefront.
