You're standing on Kitty de Wijzeplaats, a small square in Nijmegen's lower town. Look at the wall of the conference centre. Seven bronze plaques hang there, full of names. This is the Jewish Names Memorial. It carries 449 names, of Jewish people from Nijmegen who were killed during the Second World War.
