Before World War II, there was a large population of German Jews that had moved to the Netherlands to escape the rise of the Nazi Party. However, as with most other cities in Holland, the German forces occupied Sittard during the Second World War and most of the Jews were deported to concentration camps.

The 2nd Armored Division finally liberated Sittard in September of 1944. Although Sittard was on the frontline for nearly four months, the historic town was mostly spared destruction despite over 4,000 shells and rockets striking the city.
