      Mechteld ten Ham,
      the witch of 's-Heerenberg
      The widow Mechteld ten Ham lived at the beginning of the
      17th century in the Hofstraat in 's-Heerenberg
      Her husband was a town crier on the other side of the
      street. Loveless fellow citizens accused her of
      witchcraft. At her own request, a trial was held
      that led to the witch trial in the Laak near Azewijn
      She kept driving and that sealed her sentence
      Her life came to a gruesome end at the stake
      on 25 July 1605.
      The statue of Mechteld ten Ham was donated in April 2004 by
      three foundations on the occasion of the
      625-year-old city rights of 's-Heerenberg

            A beautiful castle. Definitely worth a detour.
