Who is Tula?

Antwort

You will often come across this name when you study the history of Curaçao.

In 1795, a freedom fighter named Tula led the largest slave revolt on the island. The revolt started at Landhuis Knip, the manor house of the Kenepa plantation. The plantation was named after the surrounding Kenepa trees.

The leader of the slave revolt was rehabilitated by the Netherlands more than 200 years later and is considered a national hero because he fought for freedom.

The country house, which is now home to the Museo Tula, is located on the way to the two well-known beaches, Kenepa Grandi and Kenepa Chiki, in the West of Curacao.

  • Quiz Question

    How do I find the beach where I can swim with turtles?

    Answer

    You drive to the west of Curacao to Westpunt. After a short distance into village, you will see the beginning of a long bay on your left. Continue along the road until you reach the All West Apartments, which are painted in yellow. Behind it is a large parking lot where you can leave your car. On the right-hand side, go down the stairs to Playa Grandi.

    If you have driven past, you’ve got a second chance: turn sharp left in the downhill S-bend, before the octopus tree. This will take you to the smaller parking lot at ground level, which is located directly in front of Playa Piskadó.

    Playa Piskadó is the name given to the part of Playa Grandi where the fishermen bring in their catches. There are always lots of turtles in the water.

  • Quiz Question

    Why is the strait between Punda and Otrobanda called St. Anna Bay?

    Answer

    The Spaniards landed in the bay between the two current parts of the city in 1499 on Saint Anna’s name day (= 26th of July).
    This is why they called the bay “Bahia de Santa Ana”, in Papiamentu Sint Annabaai.
