"De Gracht" might be a last name (It's capitalized).
"de gracht" (as a noun) means one of three things, which are all related: "the moat", "the canal" or "the city canal"
Moat is meant when Dutch talk about the historic things around castles.
Canal is uncommon, since that is translated in Dutch as "vaart" or "kanaal." That are the (smaller-than-rivers) waterways that are not confined to one place.
The most contemporary and most used meaning in Dutch is "city-canal," a canal that lies around a city. They evolved to this from moats.
