Stichting Centrum '45


The Dutch Foundation Centrum '45, located in Oegstgeest, calls itself "the national institute for specialist diagnostics and treatment of psychotrauma complaints as a result of prosecution, war and violence." The clientele includes victims of the Second World War, veterans, refugees, asylum seekers and people who have been traumatized during the exercise of their profession.

The "Center for Post-concentration Campaign Syndrome", founded in 1971, was given the current name in 1973 at the opening of the new building. Prof. Jan Bastiaans was closely involved in the establishment of the center, which mainly focused on World War II victims, more specifically patients with what was called the KZ syndrome.
