About the Event
In recognition of the United States' support during and after World War II, the Netherlands gifted a carillon (bell tower) to the United States in the 1950s. Today, the Netherlands Carillon, stands in Arlington, Virginia, as a proud symbol of freedom, embodying the enduring bond between the Netherlands and the United States.
