Netherlands, Harderwijk, September 27, 2011
When Belgium was overrun by German troops in 1914, hundreds of Belgian soldiers fled to the Netherlands, where they were housed in refugee camps in several towns and villages. The soldiers who died were all buried in Harderwijk.

Netherlands, Leiden, October 3, 2011
The siege of Leiden, October 3 - the Grand Parade, part of the October 3 festivities in Leiden, commemorating the siege of Leiden during the Eighty Years' War in 1573 and 1574, when the Spanish attempted to capture the rebellious city of Leiden and ultimately failed.
October 3 is celebrated every year in Leiden. It is a huge party, with an enormous funfair and the Grand Parade, each year with another theme.
