Heroic deeds were performed in this village of Drenthe


NOS documentary about Nieuwlande

The story of John Bamberg is one of the stories told in the documentary Nieuwlande, unyielding hiding village of the NOS, tonight from 8.40 pm to 9.25 pm on NPO 2. An attempt is made to find an answer to the question why so many Jewish people in hiding found refuge in Nieuwlande. So much so that the village as a whole received the important Yad Vashem award in 1985 for helping Jewish people in hiding. Only two villages in the entire world have received this award.
