About this school trip
Nationaal Monument Kamp Vught (National Monument Camp Vught) is a memorial centre on part of the site of the former concentration camp. Every year, almost 35,000 pupils and students from all over the Netherlands visit the former camp grounds. A visit moves, inspires and makes pupils think, because the stories stay with them.
Pupils visit the exhibition and the former camp grounds, for example on a guided tour of the outdoor site. For primary schools there is a teaching pack with a guided tour suitable for pupils aged around 10 to 12; there are also programmes for secondary and vocational schools. Because it is a sensitive subject, we recommend preparing the visit in class and taking time afterwards to talk it through together.
We are happy to arrange transport to Vught for you and your pupils. Our experienced driver takes your group calmly, comfortably and safely by coach to the memorial centre and back to school.
