Fort Henricus
Bergen op Zoom, Netherlands
Fort Henricus is a former fort built in 1626 on behalf of the Dutch stadtholder and commander-in-chief Frederik Hendrik of Orange to defend the port and lock of Steenbergen. The fort in the Graaf Hendrikpolder, located approximately two kilometers further north of that city, was for this reason named after Hendrik III of Nassau-Breda.
