Tienakker Convent
Tienakker ConventTienakker Convent
The British headquarters here in Wijchen was located in this old convent. The monument recounts the story of the Sisters of Tienakker, who had to deal with the German Wehrmacht, patients from the Sint Jozefgesticht and refugees from Nijmegen. From the end of September 1944, it then became the British headquarters. King George VI also paid a visit to boost the morale of the troops. At the front of the entrance to the Kloosterpark stands a monument providing further information. The convent is now privately owned.

Wijchen Peace Monument
Wijchen Peace MonumentWijchen Peace Monument
‘To all those who gave their lives for peace, wherever in the world.’ This is the inscription on this monument, which commemorates the suffering caused by all wars. The monument was designed by Henk Scheffer, a resident of Wijchen, to mark the 40th anniversary of Wijchen’s liberation. On Saturday 8 September 1984, the Queen’s Commissioner for Gelderland, Mr De Bruijne, came to Wijchen to unveil the memorial. Commemorative events are held at the monument, including the commemoration of the liberation of Wijchen and the surrounding area on 17 September. The monument is also intended as a warning against the rise of fascism and racism. The white concrete column symbolises ‘good’. The shields, made of hot-dip galvanised steel, symbolise evil. Evil attempts to penetrate good, seeking to destroy it, but is repelled because good ultimately has greater strength.

Sculpture ‘Near Miss’
Sculpture ‘Near Miss’Sculpture ‘Near Miss’
On 21 September 1944, a ‘Short Stirling MK 4’ took off from the British airfield at Fairford to supply the 1st Airborne Division stationed in Oosterbeek. The airdrop was successful, but on the return journey the four-engine transport aircraft was fired upon by a German fighter, which had initially been mistaken for an Allied aircraft. An emergency landing was unavoidable. Batenburg would have been struck by the burning aircraft had it not managed, at the very last moment, to make a belly landing on the River Maas. Thanks to the swift action of circus performers staying in Batenburg, three occupants were rescued. Conry Candler, who was among the victims, is buried in Batenburg cemetery. In 2003, the aircraft’s undercarriage was found near Dieden, on the opposite bank of the Meuse,
