At the end of the 1880s, after almost all of Flanders (except Ostend, Biervliet, Terneuzen and Axel) had been recaptured by the Spanish general Alexander Farnese (Duke of Parma from 1586), the Spaniards built forts in strategic places to defend against invasions by insurgents from the north.
One of those places was the mouth of the old harbour of Oostburg. When Prince Maurits landed in the Land of Cadzand in 1604 with a large invasion army, the Spanish fort at this location soon fell into the hands of the States.
