The Evacue is a multi-day'pilgrimage\\\' in memory of the hunger journeys and the necessary shelter of thousands of evacuees in Friesland during the Hunger Winter in World War II. Many people from the Randstad ventured to the north and east of the Netherlands and found their salvation there, including in Friesland. Among them were also the child evacuees. With'De Evacue\\\' we want to offer you the opportunity to undertake and experience a'pilgrimage\\\' that contributes to the realization that'sufficient food\\\' and \ \\'freedom\\' can't be taken for granted and can't be bought for gold!
