For centuries, people were imprisoned in the Prison Gate in The Hague. Who was held there and why? What were the interrogations like? Was torture actually used to force confessions? What punishments did the judges impose? And did anyone ever manage to escape?
This book collects ten stories about the "residents" of the Prison Gate, depicted using LEGO figures and bricks. Stories about counterfeiters and thieves, for example. Stories about the famous De Witt brothers, but also about a maid and stranded privateers.
Never before have justice and history been so much fun!
