Excerpt: During the Second World War, the majority of the Jewish population in The Hague was deported and murdered in concentration camps. Over 14,000 Jewish residents of The Hague were deported, and at least 12,000 of these were murdered. That makes The Hague the second city in the Netherlands when it comes to the number of Jewish residents who were deported and killed.
