The Spanish flag is waving on the church tower in Grolle. Children play a game on the street, traders haggle about the price of their goods, pigs turns on a spit. Everything seems peaceful… Until the news comes that the State army is approaching under the leadership of Prince Frederik Hendrik. Horses gallop across the field, cannons roar, muskets are fired and the re-enactors go to battle. Grolle is in a state of siege. Visit the Battle of Grolle (October 18, 19 and 20).
