Dit beeldwerk herinnert aan de Joodse kindertransporten uit de jaren 1938-1939. Hierbij werden kinderen uit Duitsland, Oostenrijk, Tsjecho-Slowakije en Polen via Hoek van Holland naar Engeland verscheept. Met behulp van Nederlandse burgers en vluchtelingenorganisaties wisten deze kinderen aan de deportaties te ontsnappen.

This sculpture commemorates the Jewish children's transports of 1938-1939. Children from Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland were shipped to England via Hoek van Holland. With the help of Dutch citizens and refugee organizations, these children managed to escape deportation.
