This information panel tells the story of the 'forgotten' keeper of Fort Benoorden and his family.

Cornelis Buter (1888) and his family were forced to move to the fort watchman's house in the Fort north of Purmerend during the Second World War. His daughter, Tinie, was engaged to Maarten van Tent who was sent to Berlin as a forced laborer.
