The Airborne monument on the Ginkel Heath in Ede is a memorial in the Netherlands. It was unveiled on 19 September 1960 by Major General Urquhart.
The monument is a three-metre-high concrete column. On top of the column is a brass eagle with spread wings. Emblems have been applied to the sides of the monument. The first emblem depicts a winged and crowned parachute, the second emblem the coat of arms of the King's Own Scottish Borderer and the third emblem an effigy of a purple Pegasus. At the foot of the hill where the monument is located is a natural stone plaque. About 15 meters next to the column is a boulder with the inscription: AIRBORNE 17_18 SEPT. 1944. The monument was designed by artist Melanie M. Heuff von Oven.
