Radio Kootwijk, Kootwijk Netherlands

            Radioweg 3
7348 BG, Radio Kootwijk (Gemeente Apeldoorn)
Rijksmonument ID: 46517

The former radio station “Radio Kootwijk” is situated in the heart of the “Veluwe” centred in a wonderful natural reserve area. It is a unique establishment that is highly valued for its typical blend of scenery with cultural-historical and industrial-historical characteristics.

Radio transmitting station Kootwijk was the most important connection between the Netherlands and the Dutch East Indies during the Interbellum. The station was occupied by the Wehrmacht on 11 May 1940. The German occupier used radio broadcasting station Kootwijk for different purposes:

- First, to keep in touch with the U-boats in the Atlantic Ocean.
- Secondly, for propaganda broadcasts to Great Britain and the 
  neutral countries.
- And finally as a jammer for broadcasts from Radio Oranje and   BBC.

On 6 and 7 April 1945 the Germans blew up the masts and destroyed the radio equipment.
