Photographer’s Note
The lighthouse of the marine harbour city Hellevoetsluis as an answer to Perry Hooter's light house. Here the top
Hellevoetsluis was an inportant marine harbour and many of the fleets left here for famous battles and journeys.
King William (husbant of Queen Mary Stuart)left here with an army of 14000 Dutch and 7000 others in 1688 to England. The armada of William was four times as big as the Spanish armada of 1588! Have a look in the workshop!!!! My picture was taken from the bottom left.
