Story · Fort De Hel
You're standing at Fort de Hel, a few hundred metres northwest of Helwijk. That's Dutch for Fort Hell, and the name comes from the French. In 1811 they built Fort l'Enfer here, to defend Willemstad against a possible English invasion. In 1813 the name was simply translated into Dutch, and it stuck.
