Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial

The cemetery covers 26.5 hectares (65.5 acres) and from the entrance there is Court of Honor with a reflecting pool. There is a visitors' building and a museum with three engraved operations maps describing the movements of the American forces in the area during World War II. At the base of the chapel tower, facing the reflecting pool, is a statue by Joseph Kiselewski representing the grieving mother for her lost son. Beyond the chapel and tower is the burial area which is divided into sixteen plots. 8,291 American dead, most of whom fell close to the cemetery, are interred in the cemetery with headstones set in long curves.
