New Fort Kijkduin.<br \/>This fort was intended to replace the outdated Fort Kijkduin around 1900. The Miljoenenfort was located in the middle of the dunes, just past the Huisduinen beach access point. Due to the outbreak of the First World War, the fort&#039;s construction was significantly delayed. Although the cannons had already been purchased, the fort was left unfinished in 1920, partly due to the Treaty of Versailles, and the cannons were ultimately scrapped after 1936.<\/p><p>During World War II, the German occupiers further modified the defenses. A coastal battery was placed on top of the fort. In the 1970s, Nieuw Fort Kijkduin was lost due to dike reinforcements. Mystical: are there any remains to be found in the dunes? The outline of the site is still visible on Google Maps.<\/p><p>You can probably guess by now why Nieuw Fort Kijkduin is popularly known as the Miljoenenfort (Millionaire Fort); the fort was never finished and cost millions of guilders.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-11586 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-300x169.png\" alt=\"Millions Fort Den Helder\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort-600x338.png 600w, https:\/\/denhelder.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Miljoenenfort.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p><p>Photos: Stelling Den Helder Foundation<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-790042e2 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"790042e2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b1bb698 elementor-mobile-align-justify elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-tablet-align-justify elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"3b1bb698\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Primary button<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5500eb22 elementor-mobile-align-justify elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-tablet-align-justify elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"5500eb22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Secondary button<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Volg ons op social: \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 In deze rubriek op de cultuurpagina komt elke editie een deel van de Stelling Den Helder aan bod.
