The Liberation of the Netherlands during World War II (1944 – 45)

The liberation of the Netherlands in WW2 was everything but a walk in the park. Where France and Belgium were liberated fairly swift the allied forces suffered a defeat at Arnhem during Operation Market Garden. It wasn't a complete disaster since Eindhoven and Nijmegen were liberated. The Battle of Overloon followed. During Operation Pheasant the rest of Noord-Brabant was liberated. Then there was the successful, but gruelling Battle of the Scheldt (Slag om de Schelde). Because of the failure of Market Garden, famine struck the west of the country. This Dutch Famine (known as the Hongerwinter) claimed the lives of 20,000 Dutch people. Via Germany the allies entered the north of the Netherlands. The last battle that was fought was the Battle of Groningen. On May 5, the Germans signed the surrender in Wageningen. Still, there was war violence in the Netherlands. On the island of Texel the Georgian Uprising (Russenoorlog) claimed lives till 20th of May. This is how WWII in the Netherlands ended. Learn more about the ending of the Second World War in Holland. History Hustle presents: The Liberation of the Netherlands during World War II (1944 – 1945). Correction: during the Battle of the Scheldt the allies suffered 12,873 losses (according to Antony Beevor) which I rounded up to 13,000 but I said 130,000 which is incorrect.
