Van Oldenbarnevelt was born in Amersfoort. He studied law at Leuven, Bourges, Heidelberg and Padua, and traveled in France and Italy before settling in The Hague. He supported William the Silent in his revolt against Spain, and fought in William´s army. In his later years he was a supporter of the Arminians, in the religious-political controversy which split the young Dutch Republic." - (en.wikipedia.org 31.01.2020)
