Lovely old fort and great place to just sit in the grass. This was built in 1574 by Willem van Oranje to protect the region from Spanish army. Currently this is under Natuurmonumenten which protects natural reserves and associated cultural heritage all over Netherlands. Today there are 2 restored wooden draw bridges, a canon and a couple arches. There's isn't too many things to see, but its a gorgeous landscape, nevertheless. On the way to Fort de Schans, we spotted a World War Memorial as well. Very nice historical place with good info. Napoleon was here! A geocache can be found here as well... Another step back into the past. It was interesting reading of how the fort was used. Also noted similarities between the shape and layout of this fort and the one in Cape Town. Nice to stop over on a cycle ride. Incrrdible history involving Napoleon. Lovely place too visit with an amazing history There is not too much things to see, but still it is nice to visit. Great for dogs. They are allowed to run free in the fort as long as you clean up after them.
