The Sanatorium Zonnestraal by architect Duiker is one of the earliest and most important examples of architecture of the Modern Movement. Apart from a high point in architectural history, the complex is also an important social landmark. Conceived as a follow-up colony cure tuberculosis sufferers prepare for their reintegration into society, is the brainchild of Sunbeam trade unionist Jan van Zutphen (1863-1958). His ideal is realized with money that the diamond workers union brings together the TB Patients on its members to help.Monthly tourEvery last Sunday of the month there are tours (1 ½ hour) provided by a professional guide.

We went on 'monument day' in the Netherlands and a kind man told us a whole lot about the history of the church and the houses around it. They sometimes have special concerts on the organ during weekdays.

You will not miss this spot since it is situated near the train station. People may come and go but the message that is conveyed by this monument is strong. Feel it and you will see what it means to us in our everyday lives. When there is tolerance there is peace.in the world.
