Strolling to the Prinsenhof in Ghent - Belgium 4K Travel Channel
After our ride on the Wandelbus, we make our way on foot to the Prinsenhof.
The Prinzenhof was built in the 14th century as a home for an Italian financier and politician. Later it was transformed into the residence of the Counts of Flanders. At that time, the core of the complex was called Hof ten Walle.
Maximilian the Habsburg celebrated his wedding here with Mary of Burgundy in 1477. But already in 1482, Maria died in a hunting accident. Maximilian was bound in many wars and could not enforce his guardianship for his son Philipp against the Dutch estates and France. It was not until 1493 that he succeeded. De facto Philipp and his sister Margarete were held hostage in Ghent. On February 24, 1500, the son of Philip, the grandson of Emperor Maximilian I, the future Emperor Charles V, was born here.
The relationship between the Habsburgs and the inhabitants of Flanders has always been ambivalent. Maximilian I was arrested during a visit to Bruges in 1488 and was only released after months when his father marched up with troops. In a countermove, one executed several ringleaders in Bruges.
Later, the city of Gent refused to support Charles V in the war against France, although Bruges built a sophisticated fireplace in honor of Charles V in 1530 to liberate it from French rule.
Charles V returned the favor with the execution of 18 ringleaders. Seventeen were executed by beheading in 1540, and one burned in 1545. This incident became commonly known because Ghent lost many of its most important rights. Many citizens had to kneel with a rope around their neck in front of the emperor.
A stroll to the Prinsenhof
First, we follow the route of the Wandelbuses in reverse direction and reach the Vrijdagmarkt, the Friday market. The traders are already busy dismantling their stands. Although it is called Friday Market, we made the video on a Saturday!
In the middle of the square is the statue of Jacob van Artevelde, built-in 1832. He was the leader of a Ghent uprising against Count Ludwig I of Flanders to undo the boycott of English wool imports. During the riots of 1345, one murdered him.

Nach unserer Fahrt mit dem Wandelbus machen wir uns zu Fuß auf den Weg zum Prinzenhof.
Der Prinzenhof wurde im 14. Jahrhundert für einen italienischen Financier und Politiker erbaut. Später wurde er zur Residenz der Grafen von Flandern umgewandelt. Der Kern nannte sich damals Hof zum Walle.
Maximilian der Habsburger feierte hier feierlich mit Maria von Burgund 1477 seine Hochzeit. Doch bereits 1482 starb Maria bei einem Jagdunfall. Maximilian war in vielen Kriegen gebunden und konnte seine Vormundschaft für seinen Sohn Philipp gegenüber den niederländischen Ständen und Frankreich nicht durchsetzen. Erst 1493 gelang ihm das. Praktisch wurde Philipp und seine Schwester Margarete in Gent als Geiseln gehalten. Am 24. Februar 1500 wurde hier der Sohn Philipps, der Enkel von Kaiser Maximilian I., der zukünftige Kaiser Karl V. geboren.
Das Verhältnis zwischen den Habsburgern und den Bewohnern von Flandern war von jeher gespalten. Maximilian I. wurde bei einem Besuch 1488 in Brügge inhaftiert und kam erst nach Monaten frei, als sein Vater mit Truppen aufmarschierte. Im Gegenzug wurden einige Rädelsführer in Brügge hingerichtet.
Später verweigerte sich die Stadt Gent Karl V im Krieg gegen Frankreich zu unterstützen, obwohl Brügge zu Ehren von Karl V 1530 einen mondänen Kamin für die Befreiung von der französischen Herrschaft errichtet hat.
Karl V. revanchierte sich mit der Hinrichtung von 18 Rädelsführern. Siebzehn wurden 1540 durch Enthauptung hingerichtet und einer wurde 1545 verbrannt. Bekannt wurde dieser Vorfall hauptsächlich dadurch, dass Gent viele seiner wichtigsten Privilegien verlor und zahlreiche Bürger mit einem Strick um den Hals vor dem Kaiser niederknien mussten.
Unser Spaziergang zum Prinzenhof
Zunächst folgen wir der Fahrt des Wandelbuses in umgekehrter Richtung und erreichten den Vrijdagmarkt (Freitagsmarkt). Die Händler sind allerdings bereits damit beschäftigt ihre Stände abzubauen. Obwohl er Freitagsmarkt genannt wird, haben wir das Video an einem Samstag gemacht!
In der Mitte des Platzes befindet sich die Statue von Jacob van Artevelde aus dem Jahr 1832. Er war der Anführer eines Aufstands in Gent gegen Graf Ludwig I. von Flandern, um den Boykott englischer Wollimporte rückgängig zu machen. Er wurde 1345 ermordet.

SUMMARY
=======
Henri or Hendrik Conscience (3 December 1812 – 10 September 1883) was a Belgian author. He is considered the pioneer of Dutch-language literature in Flanders, writing at a time when Belgium was dominated by the French language among the upper classes, in literature and government. Conscience fought as a Belgian revolutionary in 1830 and was a notable writer in the Romanticist style popular in the early 19th century. He is best known for his romantic nationalist novel, De Leeuw van Vlaenderen (1838), inspired by the victory of a Flemish peasant militia over French knights at the 1302 Battle of the Golden Spurs during the Franco-Flemish War.
Over the course of his career, he published over 100 novels and novellas and achieved considerable popularity. After his death, with the decline of romanticism, his works became less fashionable but are still considered as classics of Flemish literature.
