This is the Homomomomonument, er... we mean the Homomonument, in Amsterdam.

Unveiled in 1987, the humorously-named monument serves as a very serious memorial to the many thousands of gay men and women who were murdered during the Second World War.

Homomonument consists of three pink granite triangles, which each form the point of one much larger triangle.
