National Monument Camp Vught is the official name for the memorial and museum at the site of the former Herzogenbusch concentration camp. It encompasses the preserved camp grounds, a museum, and several monuments. The museum provides a comprehensive overview of the camp's history, from its establishment to liberation, and focuses on the stories of individual prisoners. Exhibits include artifacts, documents, and multimedia presentations. The outdoor area features the original camp layout, including the commandant's house, the crematorium, and the execution site.
