Hollands Kroon Memorial Piles Foundation (SHHK) was founded on March 29, 2019. The purpose of the foundation is to commemorate and remember the planes and crew members who crashed in the Hollands Kroon municipality during the Second World War by placing memorial poles. Municipality of Hollands Kroon was created by the merger of the municipalities of Anna Paulowna, Nieuwe Niedorp, Wieringermeer and Wieringen. You can read more about this initiative on the SHHK website.
