    Jacob Andresen Siemens (born December 29, 1794 on Heligoland; † September 19, 1848 in London) was the founder of the seaside resort of Heligoland.
    Siemens was arrested for insults he had voiced against the then English governor of the island. His shares in the seaside resort of Helgoland were pledged as bail for his release.
    This deposit should be paid back if he voluntarily left the island for good. He renounced it and stayed on his home island.
