We seek relatives of resistance fighters from Zoetermeer

Are you or do you know family members of these gentlemen? The municipality of Zoetermeer wants to honor these 3 Zoetermeer resistance fighters with a stolpersteine in May 2025, 80 years after liberation. These are small memorial stones. We are therefore looking for relatives of these resistance fighters.

We are already in contact with the family of Jan Horn. We would still like to get in touch with relatives of:

  • Cornelis (Kees) van Eerden, 1913-1945. Living address in 1939: Molenstraat 147 in Zoetermeer
  • Jacob (Jaap) Leendert van Rij, 1906-1945. During the war residential address: Broekweg 15 (that part was renamed J.L. van Rijweg from 1946) in Zoetermeer

We would love to hear from you at kunstprojecten@zoetermeer.nl.
