: June 4, 1941 former Kaiser Wilhelm II of

: in the Netherlands at the age of 82. The
: Kaiser had been living in the Netherlands in
: exile since the end of World War I in 1918
: and moved in to Huis Doorn in 1920. He was
: buried in a mausoleum in the grounds of Huis
: Doorn attended by members of his family and
: Field Marshal August von Mackensen along
: with a few other military advisers. His body
: has never been returned to Germany out of
: respect for his wish that his body should
: only be returned there if and when the
: monarchy is reestablished. Huis Doorn is now
: a museum open to the public but recent
: financial difficulties may result in the
: building being shut down and sold.
