Batterij begraafplaats herbergt bijzondere verhalen. De bunker, door Nederlanders geplaatst, werd opgeleverd op 26 april 1940. Precies twee weken voordat de Duitse troepen Nederland binnenvielen. Als reactie hebben de soldaten de bunker en het afweergeschut onklaar gemaakt voor de invallers. Een geëxplodeerd deel van de loop van het kanon is nog bewaard gebleven en bevindt zich in een privécollectie, dat vervolgens door de eigenaar aan de Batterij Begraafplaats is geschonken. Toch heeft de Duitse bezetter ook gebruik gemaakt van de bunker: boven de ingang zijn zeer recent Duitse teksten op de muur gevonden.

Stal van Haaster en de Jong
The private stables of Stefan van Haaster and Guido de Jong. We are mainly concerned with organizing beach rides and riding lessons, but we also regularly sell well-behaved recreation horses and ponies in the lower price range. The horses that we have are also used for the beach rides and the lessons, so they are not sport horses and we do not expect you to come to us for that. We offer horses that are healthy and of good character. Shortcomings are reported as much as possible when you purchase.
