Vrij Historisch Onderzoek

Vrij Historisch Onderzoek (VHO) is a Belgian revisionist foundation. The name translates as "Free Historical Research".

Relationship to Germar Rudolf, Castle Hill Publishers, and vho.org

"Germar Rudolf has been publishing revisionist material since December 1996. Until spring of 1998, this activity was done under the umbrella of the Belgian Foundation Vrij Historisch Onderzoek, VHO (Free Historical Research). During these activities, Rudolf acquired the Internet domain www.vho.org in September 1997, which became the largest revisionist website worldwide under Rudolf's aegis.

Because the Foundation Vrij Historisch Onderzoek was increasingly victimized by persecution and censorship due to their controversial historical publications, Germar Rudolf established his own company Castle Hill Publishers in early 1998 in the English town of Hastings. He also detached the website www.vho.org from the Foundation Vrij Historisch Onderzoek in order to prevent any intrusion by Belgian authorities and in order to legally protect his Belgian colleagues at VHO."
