Whether it is true or not, Klaas Bolks said at the unveiling, the story goes that lord Statius van Aeswijn and his wife Anna van Wachtendonk had some monkeys. At that time a status symbol for owners of large country houses and castles. But the animals climbed over the castle walls and entered Gramsbergen. The residents of the town had to catch them and climbed trees to do so. The residents of Gramsbergen get their nickname from this: Gramsberg monkeys, as Zwolle residents Zwolse Blauwfingers are called.
