Drenthe in the 1920s: a lecture by Marion Bruinenberg
took place · 26 Oct 2026
Bibliotheek Westerbork, Westerbork
Description was written before the event
In 1925, Roelof says goodbye and departs for Canada, after which he vanishes without a trace. A hundred years later, his great-granddaughter retraces his route - eight days by train and boat - in search of the truth.
This lecture combines images and archival material and explores migration, loss, and what that history still has to tell us.
