Pampus

Pampus is an artificial island and late 19th-century sea fort located in the IJmeer near Amsterdam. Together with the artillery battery on the lighthouse island near Durgerdam and the battery at the Diemer seawall, Pampus protected the entrance to IJ Bay and the harbour of Amsterdam. It now belongs to the municipality of Gooise Meren and is open to visitors.
