Antonius Hambroek

Born	1607 Rotterdam, Dutch Republic
Died	July 21, 1661 Taiwan
Nationality	Dutch

Antonius Hambroek (1607 – 21 July 1661) was a Dutch missionary to Formosa from 1648 to 1661,^[1] during the Dutch colonial era. Prior to working in Formosa, Hambroek was a minister in Schipluiden between 1632 and 1647.^[2]

History

He was killed by Koxinga as the Chinese warlord wrested Taiwan from the Dutch.^[3] Koxinga had captured Hambroek along with his wife and three of his children, and sent him as a messenger to Frederik Coyett, the Governor of Formosa, to demand the surrender of the Dutch garrison at Fort Zeelandia and the abandonment of their colony. Koxinga promised the missionary death should he return with a displeasing answer; Coyett refused to surrender and Hambroek was executed on his return to Koxinga's camp.^[4]

After the Siege of Fort Zeelandia, Koxinga took Hambroek's teenage daughter as a concubine.^[5]^[6] Other Dutch women were sold to Chinese soldiers to become their wives.^[7]

Antonius Hambroek, or the Siege of Formosa

The playwright Joannes Nomsz wrote a tragedy for the stage in 1775 about the martyrdom of Hambroek, "Antonius Hambroek, of de Belegering van Formoza" rendered in English as "Antonius Hambroek, or the Siege of Formosa",^[8]^[9] sealing the missionary's fame in Holland.
