The Dutch Who Stopped a Witch Hunt
Step into the world of witch trials and superstition with us as we visit the famous Heksenwaag (Witches Weigh House) in Oudewater, Netherlands! 👻 This eerie landmark holds a unique place in history as the only weigh house where accused witches were given a fair chance. For centuries, people traveled to Oudewater for the official weighing ceremony to prove they weren’t involved in witchcraft.
In this video, we dive into the rich history behind the Heksenwaag, why it was so trusted, and the stories of those who came here to clear their names. Join us as we tour the weigh house, examine its 16th Century scales, and uncover what made it a beacon of fairness in a dark time. We also step onto th...

    I am reminded of the Bourbaki Panorama in Luzern, Switzerland. It commemorates the "internment" of a French army that escaped to Switzerland after losing a battle to Prussian forces during the 1870-71 war. It's quite engaging, and also using 3 dimensional object in the foreground to create a more "3D" experience.

    • @TheOddWeSee

      We will need to add that to our destination wish list! It is amazing how engaging panoramas can be.

    Any ghosts? There have to be ghosts of past prisoners wandering around... Have you guys thought about doing a video about a canal boat trip? It would be an interesting POV to see one of these towns/cities from the boat's-eye-view...😀

    • @TheOddWeSee
      @TheOddWeSee 2 месяца назад

      I know the Blokhuispoort has entertained ghost hunters in the past, but they don't offer ghost tours. I haven't checked what the ghost hunters said about their experiences there. We do want to do a ghost hunt for the channel at a very special place in the future. The more subscribers we get, the more our chances of being able to do that! We haven't considered a canal boat trip yet. We like to focus on the more unusual sites and activities for travelers, and the canal boat tours are already quite popular. It definitely would make for a nice (and aesthetic) view of the cities we visit, though. Thanks for the tip! If they ever had a ghost hunting boat canal tour, well then we'd be first in line!

    @AngryTeuton 2 месяца назад

    Just a few notes from your friend, Mr. Pedantic: 1. Liesschen is pronounced LEES-schen (well, approximately); 2. the pastry fork, or Kuchengabel, has the extra thick tine for cutting into your cake or strudel; 3. Nice Zoolander ref!; 4. Will Mark EVER stop fawning over William Shatner?

    • @TheOddWeSee
      @TheOddWeSee 2 месяца назад

      Thanks for the tips and for letting us know about that fork! Hadn’t seen one like that before- I guess I haven’t been eating enough cake!

    • @AngryTeuton
      @AngryTeuton 2 месяца назад

      When you grow up with and aunt and uncle that own a cafe and Konditorei (pastry shop), you get on intimate terms with the pastry fork!

    • @TheOddWeSee
      @TheOddWeSee Месяц назад

      @AngryTeuton We are embarrassed by our pastry ignorance. There is just one solution for that- we need to eat more pastries!

    @AngryTeuton 3 месяца назад

    Would be cool if they had an alarm (wake-up) system integrated with the pod lighting so you wake up as the lighting gradually increases... Did you feel claustrophobic at all within the pod once you were in total darkness? Made me think of Andor when he's imprisoned in the Imperial factory...

    • @TheOddWeSee
      @TheOddWeSee 3 месяца назад

      It would be cool if they had the wake-up system but if it was optional, since many people come to Berlin to go clubbing and are going to sleep as the sun comes up. I didn’t feel claustrophobic, but I also lived for a few years in a loft in Williamsburg NYC without windows, so I was already acclimated. You can always sleep with your pod doors open as well. I saw a few people, including Mark, doing this. It does have those Andor vibes with the all white surroundings! LOL

  • @AngryTeuton
    @AngryTeuton 3 месяца назад

    Is the company a homegrown German firm, or are they Japanese? Japan, of course, have had these (sleep pods) for decades... Sorry about the space goo leak, River - seems appropriate given the theme!

    • @TheOddWeSee
      @TheOddWeSee 3 месяца назад

      I’m uncertain of the hostel ownership, but it owns the same prefab capsules as many space capsule hotels around Europe. However, unlike the majority, such as in Vienna, this location really tries to sell the “space” theme. Fun stay! The space goo, alas, has lingered somewhat. But the camera has been salvaged. Thanks for watching!

    • @TheOddWeSee
      @TheOddWeSee 4 месяца назад

      The Mozart sign was the actual name of the rib and steak restaurant. Strangely, we saw another restaurant in Antwerp called “Amadeus - The Place for Ribs.” I never knew Mozart was synonymous with ribs!
