Jacques J.C.M. Luske was the mayor of Bergharen during the Second World War. Luske regularly protested against the German authorities and actively helped to protect people in hiding. During a raid, a number of people in hiding were arrested; after being tortured, they admitted that Luske had helped them go into hiding. On 6 March 1944, Luske was arrested by the Germans. He was eventually sent to Neuengamme concentration camp near Hamburg, where he died on 27 December 1944. Luske was 43 years old.

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.
