In the navy quarter (Marine Kwartier Hellevoetsluis), certainly at the dry dock, the 19th-century history from the Navy era of Hellevoetsluis can still be seen. The historic dock is restored in perfect condition almost just like it was, still operational and frequently in use. Various types of ships are undergoing repairs and maintenance.
The dry dock is one of the historic sites within the unique maritime fortified city Fortress Hellevoetsluis. The city of Hellevoetsluis used to be known as Fortress Holland, an important naval port for centuries and with an illustrious maritime past in Dutch history.
