Story · Museum Schokland

  • en
  • nl

You're standing on Schokland, in the middle of the Noordoostpolder. That sounds odd, because this used to be an island in the Zuiderzee. Where there are meadows now, there was once water. You're on the old dwelling mound of Middelbuurt, a raised spot where the islanders lived, just above the waves.
