Spinoza used to live around the corner from where I live now, and I used to live a few hundred meters frome here, on the Spinozalaan (-lane). Another fun fact, a few houses down from where Spinoza lived, is the residence of the Huygens family. Christiaan Huygens is the inventor of the pendulum clock, amongst many other scientific improvements. Apparently the two knew eachother... :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiaan_Huygens https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiaan_Huygens https://www.hofwijck.nl/nl/spinoza-op-hofwijck https://www.hofwijck.nl/nl/spinoza-op-hofwijck
