Scheveningen

One of the districts of The Hague, located on the coast of the North Sea. The first mention of the present Scheveningen dates back to 1357. In the Middle Ages there was a small fishing village. Probably, the impetus for its development was the foundation of the Counts of Holland Prinsenhof Castle in The Hague.

During its long history, Scheveningen was repeatedly subjected to destructive storm surges that claimed lives and sometimes caused significant damage to the settlement. Currently, Scheveningen is not only a holiday on the sea, parks and fresh air, but also a rich cultural and historical heritage and a lot of entertainment.
