The Netherlands hosts nearly 4,000 World War 2 monuments and cemeteries commemorating the fallen heroes of 1940-1945 (WWII Monuments), the highest density in Europe. Of these, Veterans Affairs Canada highlights 10 here.
There are three Canadian cemeteries: in Groesbeek, Holten, and Bergen-Op-Zoom, along with many other Commonwealth War Graves Cemeteries containing the final resting place of Canadian soldiers.
