March 7, 2024,Verhaal van Nederland - Het Pad van Oranje / Willemstad

This walk through the idyllic Brabant fortified town of Willemstad covers five centuries of Orange history. We start in the harbour. The Hollands Diep river will be forever connected to the Oranjes due to Friso's drowning. Walking over dikes and bastions, we discover how the town got its name and what role Prince Maurits played in it.

Fascinating podwalk again about the history and connection of Willemstad with the Oranjes. Heard many new things. Willemstad is a beautiful fortified city with a rich past. Parking is ideally arranged, you start and end the route at the parking lot.
