Memorials Head Office of ABN AMRO Amsterdam

In the Head Office of ABN AMRO in Amsterdam is a memorial and multiple plaques in memory of the victims who fell in World War II.

A bronze plaque has been placed in the ABN AMRO office on Gustav Mahlerlaan in Amsterdam in memory of three victims who died in the Second World War. This plaque was made for the ABN predecessor of the Nederlandsche Handel-Maatschappij in memory of some employees of its Rotterdam office (or 'agency' in NHM terminology) at Blaak 34, who were killed during the Second World War. This plaque was later moved.

Text on the plaque:
