Harlingen mien stadsje

My hometown, Harlingen (NL)

The former boarding school for marine officers, former orphanage, former citadel warehouse dates from the early 16th century. The entrance has a  beautiful disgorger of exceptional sculptural quality
Text: "is god mit ons wie kan dan 15 46 tegen ons sijn niemante" 
If God be for us, who can be against us?

I Rom. 8 : 31, date1546.
