Brouwershaven, town on the Grevelingen and city with many faces. Once a trading town where many goods were landed or shipped in the days when Rotterdam was not easily accessible by water. And, of course, it is the birthplace of the famous Jacob Cats. Among all these highs, Brouwershaven also has low points. But each time it rose again.

Markt 11WATCH & QUESTION: Trading town
Schouwen and Duiveland used to be two islands. A wide creek called Gouwe flowed between them. Ebb and flow created tidal creeks. One of these creeks ended in the Schouwen country at Brijdorpe, then a village with a church. When the polder was embanked in the 12th century, a dam was placed in the creek and a sluice was built in the dam to drain the polder water. A village had to be built around that dam. Brouwershaven was built on the dikes.
Brouwershaven grew into a beautiful little town where a lot of trade was done. Barrels of herring and madder (for the red dye) were loaded from the market into the ships in the harbour using a wooden crane and transported to Brabant, Rotterdam and Antwerp, among other places. But mussels, shrimps and beer also made a lot of money. And at the scales, people weighed grain, flour and metal. Nowadays, there is not much trade, but the remains of this trading town are still present and clearly visible.
Question 1: What was mainly in the barrels that the wooden crane moved around the market? Madder and ... Write down the 1st letter.

BrouwershavenWATCH & QUESTION: Slingerbos
In February 1953, there was a big storm and many dykes in the south-west of the Netherlands broke under the force of the pounding water. It also affected Brouwershaven. Three people died and the water left behind a mess. Money was needed for reconstruction and it came from the municipality of Voorburg (near The Hague). This municipality adopted the town and donated 50,000 guilders (about 23,000 euros in conversion). Buildings and streets were repaired, but much more happened. For instance, 92 pairs of socks were knitted and all 220 schoolchildren received a present. A memorial stone was placed in the renovated Slingerbos to remember this special adoption.
Question 2: Which municipality adopted Brouwershaven? Write down the 2nd letter. -
