Hoorn, it gave the name to the most Southerly point of Amerika, Cape Horn (1616).
It was a hard time sailing over the world and hoping to find a good and safe destiny.
Good sailors came back and brought wellness. Hoorn was also very poor for a long time after the so called 'Golden age'.
The benefit of this are the well kept original (ware) houses.
