Dutch Nazi camp drops barbed wire sale after protests
THE HAGUE — The foundation in charge of a former Nazi concentration camp in the Netherlands on Tuesday cancelled the planned sale of pieces of barbed wire dug up at the site after protests from Jewish groups.
Kamp Amersfoort Foundation director Harry Ruijs said he would no longer sell the 50 pieces of wire for 10 euros ($13) apiece to finance an exhibition of artefacts discovered at the site around 50 kilometres (30 miles) southwest of Amsterdam.
