Peter Stuyvesant was the last Dutch director-general of the colony of New Netherland, which later became New York. Stuyvesant is known for strengthening the Dutch presence in the region and overseeing the colony's growth until it was taken over by the English in 1664. He is also famous for his wooden leg, which he had after losing a leg in battle.
