1. Almost every Dutch person knows that the famous Dutch statesman Jan de Witt (1625–1672) was Grand Pensionary of Holland and that he was murdered in a gruesome way by a mob, together with his two-yearsolder brother Cornelis. The murder took place on August 20, 1672, at Het Groene Zoodje, (now known as de Plaats) in the centre of the Hague. A statue on the spot serves to keep his memory alive.
