    Very good video of the city where I live since 1978. Just one small point, at 8:14 I hear: "the Dutch king, William of Orange". He never was the King of Holland, his title was Prince of Orange (Principality of Orange, France, 1163 to 1713).

      You are correct, thanks...I realized next day, too late, but did label him correctly in the main movie ruclips.net/video/Sc4t0xVIYWc/видео.html Things get more confusing because there were two Williams of Orange, the more famous one being William III a century later who also was king of England, whereas the William who rescued Leiden, thus major Dutch hero, is often called William the Silent. Confusing%#^%@& Then he was assassinated in Delft in 1584 -- not much gratitude. Times were difficult back then.

    Excellent and very informative video yet again. Kudo's for this. :)
    Did you know that Mayor Van der Werff offered himself up to the people of Leiden to be eaten during the Spanish war? Because the Spanish couldn't take Leiden by force, their intent was to starve Leiden out. And they nearly succeeded. Leiden and it's people were on the brink of starvation, and so the mayor eventually offered himself up to be eaten by the people. But the people refused this. And not much later a boy named Jan (or Jantje, which translates much to Little John) saw during a night a parade of lights marching away. It turned out to be the Spanish army retreating. He then found food that the army had left behind, which was a mix of potatoes, onions and carrots. Enough food was found for Leiden to survive. That's also why the 3rd of October (when we were liberated from the Spanish army) is still celebrated to this day and that food Jantje found, we call it "Hutspot" and it's the traditional food of Leiden during the 3rd of October.

      That's a fascinating story about the heroic struggle, thanks so much.

      Unlikely that the original hutspot contained potatoes, so soon after the discovery of the Americas

      @denniscallan  5 лет назад +4

      According to your Tourist Information Office, VVV, both Bush and Obama had Pilgrim ancestors who departed from Leiden to America. Here is the TI brochure quote: "The ancestors of President Obama lived in Leiden. He is a direct descendant of a Leiden pilgrim family. Presidents Grant, Coolidge, Taylor, F.D. Roosevelt and the Bushes too have Leiden Pilgrims as ancestors."
