Arnhem (map) is the capital of the Dutch provice Gelderland. In the 19th century, Arnhem was a genteel resort town famous for its picturesque beauty. It was known as “The Little Hague of the East”, mainly because a number of rich former sugar barons or planters from the Indies settled there, as they did in The Hague.
