Of the 14,000 Jews who were deported from The Hague, 12,000 were murdered. This horrific fact deserves attention and a place where they can be remembered in a worthy fashion, a place where the memory returns, a place at the heart of the former Jewish district. From the end of the seventeenth century until the Second World War, the site of what is now Rabbijn Maarsenplein was the heart of the Jewish district.<\/p>\n<p>This square already had the Children\u2019s monument and a replica of the bronze plaquette called \u2018Rachel weent\u2019 (Rachel weeps). Both memorials were created in memory of the Jewish children in The Hague who died in the Second World War. You can find the original of the plaque \u2018Rachel weent\u2019 in the exhibition Children in War, in the Museon.<\/p>\n<p>On the square a new monument was conceived and produced by the Hague\/Israeli artist Anat Ratzabi, who has used existing and new symbolism to create a place at the heart of The Hague city centre for reflection and contemplation.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/joodsmonumentdenhaag.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/gravure-800&#215;800-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;explanation Plaque Rachel weeps&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#bbbaa5&#8243; da_disable_devices=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; da_is_popup=&#8221;off&#8221; da_exit_intent=&#8221;off&#8221; da_has_close=&#8221;on&#8221; da_alt_close=&#8221;off&#8221; da_dark_close=&#8221;off&#8221; da_not_modal=&#8221;on&#8221; da_is_singular=&#8221;off&#8221; da_with_loader=&#8221;off&#8221; da_has_shadow=&#8221;on&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.16.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;|600|||||||&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;25px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Anat Ratzabi, designer and maker of the monument:<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cIt is important and also a huge responsibility to keep alive the memory of those who did not return, but also to demonstrate the long-term impact of the Holocaust to people of today and tomorrow.
