Homo monument
The Homomonument in Amsterdam is a unique monument that commemorates the persecution of LGBTQ+ people and makes their history visible. It is located in the center of the city, directly opposite the Westertoren, and was inaugurated in 1987. The monumental triangle made of pink granite symbolizes the diverse LGBTQ+ community and stands for the fight against discrimination and violence.
A visit to the Homomonument offers the opportunity to learn more about the history of the LGBTQ+ movement in the Netherlands. It is not only a place of memory, but also of hope and change. Events take place regularly nearby and the square invites you to pause and think about equality.
The central location makes it easy to access and interact with the surrounding area, so you can also explore other attractions in Amsterdam. A visit here promotes awareness of diversity and tolerance in our society.
