Mausoleum Paasberg Ede

The Mausoleum on the Paasberg, close to the Town-hall of Ede, can be seen as a separate War Cemetery because it is not connected with another cemetery and people of the resistance are buried here.

On the mausoleum are 44 plates with the name en the date of birth and death of people of the resistance who lived in Ede. 30 of them are buried here.
