Tiles.
The fort-island of Pampus, built in 1895, never saw any enemy action though. It became useless in 1932 when the Afsluitdijk (Closure Dike), closing of the Zuider Zee, was finished, and Pampus was therefore closed a year later. During the heavy winter of ‘44-’45 the island was reachable by ice and the people of Amsterdam looted the island for everything useful. Some tiles remained, though.
