The Doelenpoort, looking onto the Groenhazengracht.
Groen Haze was a well known brothel keeper in the 15th century, and at that time the city council positioned the red-light district close to the shooting range of the militia (targets).
Later this became the Groenhazengracht. Before that it was called Schelu truydengracht, Schele Truy was the predecessor of Groen.  The whole part between Noordeinde and Groenhazengracht was called Billenburch.
