Summary/Abstract: This article aims to present the outcomes of research conducted by the author on the Huguenots as educators for the Dutch nobility. This topic has been chosen because during the entire period covering the second half of the 16th century until the mid-18th century, many French Calvinists, also known as Huguenots, were either escaping from religious persecution by Catholic authorities, or emigrating for economic reasons to the United Provinces of the Netherlands.
