Fort Den Haak

Fort Den Haak is een voormalig fort dat lag bij Vrouwenpolder op Walcheren. In 1588 werd het fort gebouwd op last van de Staten van Zeeland, omdat er voor een Spaanse invasie werd gevreesd. In de zeventiende eeuw werd het fort beschadigd door zeewater en verloor een deel van haar strategische waarde door oprukkende duinen. In 1809 landden Britse troepen dicht bij het fort en werd deze na weinig verzet ingenomen. Toen de Britten het eiland verlieten werd het fort grotendeels door hen ontmanteld. In 1854 werden de restanten van het fort als vestingwerk opgeheven. Enkele contouren van het fort zijn nog zichtbaar.
