Henning Andersen

On 5 July 1945 Andersen's remains and those of five others from the group were found in Ryvangen and transferred to the Department of Forensic Medicine of the University of Copenhagen. The remains of the two remaining executed members of the group, Marius Fiil and his son Niels, had been found in the same area three days before.

In 1945 a memorial stone over the eight executed members of the Hvidsten group was raised near Hvidsten kro.

In March 1944, the Gestapo made an "incredible number of arrests" including in the region of Randers where a number of members of the Hvidsten group were arrested.

On 29 June 1944, Andersen and seven other members of the Hvidsten group were executed in Ryvangen.

On 15 July 1944, De frie Danske reported on the execution of several members of the Hvidsten group. Six months later the January 1945 issue of the resistance newspaper Frit Danmark (Free Denmark) reported that on 29 June the previous year Andersen and seven other named members of the Hvidsten group had been executed.

Henning Andersen (16 July 1917 – 29 June 1944) was a member of the Danish resistance executed by the German occupying power.
