No less than 5,500 paper cranes have landed in the village church. They are part of the
'Birds of Hope'-project by artist Mathilde Leonore in collaboration with 'Plaats de Wereld',
a volunteer organisation focussing on education and inspiration. The majority of these
paper cranes symbolise hope and future for the youth in the Tynaarlo municipality, while the rest
stand for hope for children in refugee camps in the south of Europe. The church is open
for viewers on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 5 pm. (photo 24Jul21)
A friend once folded 100 cranes and put them in a small box for me to wish me luck. I still have them many years later.
