At Hotel Sionshof in Heilig Landstichting there is a wooden statue of “Para Joe”, an American paratrooper. The statue is a tribute to the 82nd Airborne Division, which landed in September 1944 during Operation Market Garden. It stands in the garden of the hotel, close to an older bronze relief. The statue commemorates the liberation of Nijmegen and the collaboration with the Dutch resistance.
