at the end of the first day and after a long hike through unknown parts of Holland. We had to climb the steps you can spot in the middle to get in town. Of course you can get into town by car, bike, motor or whatever, even by boat for Willemstad has a wonderful harbour.
Named after Willem van Oranje (William of Orange) who received this town, then called Ruigenhil, in 1582 as a compensation for the loss of properties in the war with Spain. Willem gave order to make walls and canals around the village and since then the name changed into Willemstad.

In 2006, the nearby Sago Mine disaster claimed the lives of a dozen coal miners in an explosion.
