HMCS Windflower ( K155 ) HMCS " Windflower " was a Royal Canadian Navy which took part in convoy escort duties in the Battle of the Atlantic during the Second World War . Background . Flower - class corvettes like " Windflower " serving with the Royal Canadian Navy during the Second World War were different to earlier and more traditional sail - driven corvettes . The " corvette " designation was created by the French as a class of small warships ; the Royal Navy borrowed the term for a period but discontinued its use in 1877 . During the hurried preparations for war in the late 1930s , Winston Churchill reactivated the corvette class , needing a name for smaller ships used in an escort capacity , in this case based on a whaling ship design . The generic name " flower " was used to designate the class of these ships , which – in the Royal Navy – were named after flowering plants . Construction . " Windflower " was ordered on 22 January 1940 as part of the 1939 - 1940 Flower - class building program and laid down at George T . Davie & Sons Ltd . , Lauzon on 24 February 1940 . Launched on 8 August 1940 she was commissioned into the Royal Navy on 20 October . She was among the ten corvettes to be transferred to the RCN and commissioned on 15 May 1941 .

Evenburg The Evenburg is a water castle in the village of Loga in north Germany , not far from the River Leda . History . It was built by Colonel Erhard Reichsfreiherr von Ehrentreuter of Hofrieth ( 1596 - 1664 ) , commander of the Dutch garrison in Emden , between the years 1642 and 1650 . He named the castle after his wife Eva , Baroness Ungnad , of Bohemia , whom he had married in 1631 . Colonel von Ehrentreuter had been enfeoffed with Loga and the neighbouring village of Logabirum by Count Ulrich II of East Frisia to pay off his considerable gambling debts . Marie von Ehrentreuter ( 1633 - 1702 ) , the youngest daughter of the colonel , married Gustav Wilhelm Freiherr von Wedel ( 1641 - 1717 ) who came from Königsberg . The later field marshal of the Danish King Christian became the new lord of Evenburg and also the Governor of Oldenburg Land . In 1684 , having amassed a considerable fortune , he bought the Jarlsberg near Oslo in Norway as well . From that time onwards , the von Wedels were given the title of Count . Descendants of the von Wedel family , whose main residence today is Gödens Castle in the parish of Sande , occupied the Evenburg for centuries . Architecture . In 1861 / 62 , the building , which was one of the earliest examples of classical architecture in the Dutch style , was badly in need of repair and was largely demolished . Only the foundation walls and the vault of the old transept in the centre were incorporated into the new residence , which was otherwise executed in the Neo - Gothic style ; its architect being Richard Stueve from Hanover . During the Second World War ( 1939 - 1945 ) the castle was badly damaged . The filigreed roof structures could not be restored , the roof was covered very simply . After extensive renovation work the Evenburg is now home to various institutions including the Education Academy of East Frisia and a college for grammar school teachers . Until a few years ago it also housed the district media centre for Leer district , who had acquired the Evenburg in June 1975 along with its estates for about seven million deutschmarks from the von Wedels .

Charles Emmanuel was duke at a volatile time , and subsequently was involved in many political intrigues , mostly by his relationship on his mothers side with the House of Guise . The Duke of Guise was one of the leaders of the Catholic League opposing the Huguenots , and Charles Emmanuel sympathised with their cause . However , after the assassination of Henry I , Duke of Guise and his brother the Cardinal of Guise , Charles Emmanuel was imprisoned by the Huguenots in 1588 , but was able to escape . He was to fight the Huguenot forces for some years ; he fought at the Battle of Arques in 1589 . That same year , Charles Emmanuel was the governor of Paris , as the Huguenot forces , led by Henry of Navarre besieged Paris .

Charles Emmanuel escaped , and fought the newly proclaimed King at the Ivry in 1590 , which was a decisive loss for the Catholic League . The same year he commanded Catholic forces during the Siege of Paris , successfully defending the city . After the defeat , Charles Emmanuel strongly disagreed with his half - brother and long - time ally Charles of Lorraine , Duke of Mayenne ( also of the House of Guise ) , who advocated conciliation with Henry IV . Charles Emmanuel withdrew to his government in Lyonnais , where he endeavoured to make himself independent from the French crown . He was imprisoned , however , in the chateau of Pierre - Encise by the archbishop of Lyon . Again , he successfully escaped , and decided to attack Lyon . The intervention of the Constable de Montmorency thwarted his attack however , and his attempt at independence failed . He died at Annecy in 1595 , leaving the Duchy of Nemour to his brother Henri de Savoie .
