de gevangenpoort.

This prison Arie was send to.
Was `de Gevangenpoort` in The Hague now a museum .

In this prison there was a special `hostage`chamber.
The prisoners in this room were well to do and had to pay for staying there.Almost a guilder each day.


They had their own beds and even their servant was allowed to  serve them.
Not all  prisoners were so lucky .
Some were branded.To mark them forever.
The stork is symbol of the Hague.
On the fishmarket they had storks to clean the market .
