Corrie ten Boom (1892-1983) is considered a hero of the Christian faith. She and her family risked their lives to save an estimated 800 Jews and refugees from the German gestapo during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands in World War II. Corrie, who began her adult life working in her father's clock shop, was involved in an underground resistance movement during the war that eventually led to her imprisonment at Ravensbrück, a German concentration camp for women. Corrie's classic work, The Hiding Place, is a testament to her faith and has inspired millions of readers around the world. Visitors to Haarlem, Netherlands, can visit and tour the ten Booms' home, also known as the Beje. The 1600s Dutch-style house, which is west of Amsterdam, sheltered three generations of the ten Boom family. The Beje features the actual hiding place, family photos, and artifacts from World War II.
