Hellevoetsluis is now located was already in use for permanent residence in the Iron Age (circa 800 years BC). The settlement was also present when the Romans were present within Dutch territory. However, in the period from about the 7th century to about the 11th century, people had left the island. Only in the 11th century did people return to develop the final base of Hellevoetsluis.<\/div><div data-uro-type=\"image\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div><p>In the 15th century, Hellevoetsluis was a small harbor called Nieuw-Helvoet. The current historic fortifications was built in the 17th century. This to strengthen the war and trade port. Hellevoetsluis developed into an important naval port with associated naval base, training institutes and fortifications. At the beginning of the 20th century, however, this slowly came to an end, especially when the naval base was moved to Den Helder.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4712827 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4712827\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2aa4e15 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2aa4e15\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Unfortunately, Hellevoetsluis was partially demolished by the Nazis during World War II.

The harbor was used by the navy as a base for temporarily decommissioned ships from the minesweeping service. One of the minesweepers was eventually named after the town. The Mr. Ms. Hellevoetsluis (which was decommissioned in 2011).<\/p><div id=\"widgetcontainer_STRATP_cm4all_com_widgets_UroPhoto_44904610\" class=\"cm_widget cm4all_com_widgets_UroPhoto cm_widget_float_left cm-pixel-medium\"><div id=\"uroPhotoOuterSTRATP_cm4all_com_widgets_UroPhoto_44904610\" data-uro-type=\"image\">The many remains of this historic harbor can be visited freely and are even easily accessible by motorbike.

The name actually tells the function of the steamship. The bow was an armed ram with the aim of ramming\/damaging enemy ships just below the waterline. The bow is therefore very impressive to stand in front of. The Buffel was launched for the first time in 1868. It was the very first fully steam-powered ship of the Dutch Navy. However, the Buffel has never really performed its function effectively outside of the various exercises. Due to, among other things, a very heavy gun turret on top of the ship, it was very unstable in the water in rougher weather conditions. The Buffel was therefore put into use in 1894 as a training ship to train sailors in the use and maintenance of steamships. From 1948 to 1974, the Buffel was used as a floating sleeping quarters, after which it was transferred in 1974 to serve as a museum ship from that year onwards.<\/p><div id=\"widgetcontainer_STRATP_cm4all_com_widgets_UroPhoto_44904641\" class=\"cm_widget cm4all_com_widgets_UroPhoto cm_widget_float_right cm-pixel-medium\"><div id=\"uroPhotoOuterSTRATP_cm4all_com_widgets_UroPhoto_44904641\" data-uro-type=\"image\">The old fortified harbor of Hellevoetsluis is therefore a great pleasure to visit by motorbike.
