    The stone statues in the pond were once Napoleon's soldiers, according to the mythology of the former fairytale park Land van Ooit. When the French emperor marched through this swampy part of Brabant with his army, his warriors came across Stor de Bostor. This evil mage, antagonist in many of the amusement park stories, stopped the soldiers' advance by turning them into stone. Napoleon's men could no longer move and would slowly languish in the water.

      The beautiful Steenenburg Castle is located between Drunen and Nieuwkuijk.

      Interesting to see the depiction of the French soldiers from

      "Waterloo".

        Very appropriate 15 years after the closure of the land of Ever.
