Once a fortress defending Paramaribo, then a prison, museum and military installation, Fort Zeelandia now is a museum again where you can get a good idea of the history of this former colony.
Right on the bank of the Suriname River, Fort Zeelandia is a clear reminder of the colonial history of Surinam and proof of the complexity of that history. Originally, the French built a wooden fort here, around a Dutch trading post, and when the British took over, they reinforced it and called it Fort Willoughby. In 1667, the Dutch retook it and renamed it Fort Zeelandia, and later reinforced it further. It provided protection against invaders for Paramaribo and the plantations on the Suriname River. When the French successfully attacked the fort, the Dutch built another fort, Fort Nieuw Amsterdam. Fort Zeelandia was turned into a barracks, and later a prison.
