The memorial was designed by Titus Leeser and was unveiled on May 5, 1950. It depicts a person who gets up again after a lot of suffering has been experienced. By looking to the future, people regain the courage to live. The monument is partially surrounded by a low wall that symbolizes resistance.
Words by Victor E. van Vriesland have been written on the wall near the monument:
Remember the suffering, but not to dwell.
Remember the disgrace, but to go on.
The following words can be read on the column:
1940 TO THOSE WHO FELL 1945
(nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/War Monument_Zwolle)
