Born in Vostitsa in 1786 , he was initiated into the Filiki Eteria in 1818 and was one of the first military leaders to raise the banner of revolt in the Peloponnese during the Greek War of Independence . On 26 January 1821 , under the ruse of a land dispute between landowners , Londos and other leading landowners , primates and bishops of the Filiki Eteria , including Andreas Zaimis and Germanos of Patras , met Papaflessas at the Monastery of Archangels Michael and Gabriel in Vostitsa to discuss plans for an uprising against the Turks . At first skeptical of Papaflessas ' s rhetoric for general uprising , Londos and the other leaders eventually raised the banner of independence on 10 March 1821 at the monastery of Agia Lavra after the Bey of Tripoli imprisoned and threatened to execute several leading Greek Bishops . On 23 March 1821 , he and 400 Greek fighters marched on Vostitsa . Hearing rumours of a general insurrection , the Turks fled across the Gulf of Corinth and took refuge at Amfissa . The Greeks captured the town without a fight . Leaving 200 men as a garrison , Londos then marched on Patras to join the siege of the city ' s fortress . In July 1822 , at Akrata , a force of Greek fighters under Londos , Zaimis and Petmezas surrounded and attacked a group of 4000 Turks marching to Patras after their defeat by Nikitaras at Dervenakia . Only a few Turks were lucky to escape when Yusuf Pasha sent ships to take them to Patras . Andreas Londos , with his friend and ally Andreas Zaimis , were later embroiled in the political intrigues surrounding the claims of two factions to legitimacy of government . At first siding with the government ( then led by Georgios Kountouriotis ) , Londos later joined the Peloponnesian leaders against the government of Ioannis Kolettis , and was subsequently on the losing side of the civil war of 1824 . Following Greek independence , he became involved in the September 3 Movement that finally secured a constitution for the people of Greece .

Fort Pannerden Fort Pannerden is a disused military fort situated near the village of Pannerden in the southeast of the Netherlands . In November 2006 , it became the focus of national news stories because a group of squatters were evicted in a large - scale operation by police , helped by the army . Later on in the same month , it was resquatted . History . The fort was constructed between 1869 and 1871 to serve as part of the New Dutch Waterline . Originally built completely out of brick and mortar , with just one main battery guarding the Rhine , it was upgraded significantly during 1885 - 1895 . The main battery was completely rebuilt , with armour and concrete , while two additional armoured batteries were added and the roof of the fort was reinforced with concrete . The fort had strategic significance in that it guarded the Pannerden Canal , which supplied the water for the inundations of the New Dutch Waterline and could potentially be used as a route towards the main line of defence , but the fort saw little active service . In World War I the Netherlands remained neutral , although the fort was manned as part of a general mobilisation . In World War II on May 10 , 1940 , during the German invasion of the Netherlands , the fort was first bypassed and then surrounded . On May 11 , cut off from the rest of the Dutch army , the commander of the fort surrendered under threat of artillery bombardment and air attack . Most of the fort was subsequently stripped of all useful materials and after 1945 the building fell into disuse . Recent history . From 1988 onwards , there have been attempts to repair the fort , but during the 1990s those plans fell through and all work was abandoned . On June 12 , 2000 , the fort was squatted . Working with local residents and Stichting Fort Pannerden ( a foundation set up to maintain and promote the fort ) , the squatters carried out essential repairs and held a monthly open day . The local city council ( gemeente Lingewaard ) forbade the open days and the owner , Staatsbosbeheer , took the squatters to court , saying it wanted to make a museum there . The owner won the court case . After the squatters refused to leave , they were evicted in a two day operation by police , riot police and army forces beginning November 7 , 2006 . Twenty five squatters were removed from inside the building . On November 25 , 2006 , the fort was resquatted by a group of between eighty and one hundred squatters . After first threatening to evict the fort again despite the huge costs involved , the council signed a contract in December with the squatters . The squatters agreed not to live there , but four out of the group were now responsible for the upkeep of the building . The open days were once more permitted , until they left when work to restore the fort began in 2009 .
