The foundation and street are named after Prince Henry, younger brother of King William III. And so not to Prince Henry, Queen Wilhelmina&#8217;s consort. That one does have a street name in Bergen<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, our Hendrik, the one from the foundation, William&#8217;s brother. There is also a serial to be written about the two. The current soap opera surrounding William and Harry pales by comparison.<\/p>\n<h3>Just a few facts:<\/h3>\n<p>William did not want to be king at all. Preferred to stay in the brothels of Paris. On the day his father William II died, William, who was there, hastily took a carriage to England for a lengthy stay. And it was not because he was running for kingship.<\/p>\n<p>Then still later, the perfectly healthy Prince Henry suddenly died of measles. That you died of that as an adult was exceptional even in the 19th century. Hendrik was one of the richest people in the Netherlands, though; his brother William III was in black seed and was heir. Here are the facts. But a good story is always better than the facts brewing authority Fred Krop once said to me. I still doubt that was a compliment.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>In the 19th century, Egmond aan Zee struggled with numerous epidemics. In 1866 cholera, in 1871 typhus. Many young fishermen succumbed to the latter wave of disease. Many women, children and the elderly became dependent on poor care.<\/p>\n<h3>Collections and raffles<\/h3>\n<p>Collections and raffles were held to provide aid. By 1873, the lottery had finally raised enough money to establish an asylum for the elderly. Hendrik had bought most of the lottery tickets and made up another shortfall.<\/p>\n<p>Regents were appointed and the building opened in 1875. Which in the beginning accommodated 7 people. More was not possible because of lack of money. Incidentally, the first residents were not from Egmond. Four from Amsterdam, two from Den Helder and one from Rotterdam.<\/p>\n<p>There were more lenders and more residents. Foreigners who had sailed on Dutch ships could also go there after some time. In 1884, a German, a Swiss and a Dane reported. Renovations followed, and in 1931 the present landmark building opened. I come there every two weeks. To pee, but mostly for the museum. All those sailors have amassed an impressive collection.<\/p>\n<p>It is freely accessible, it is in a great experience.
