The Watervertelplein works through scenarios
Choose one high-water situation and follow which measurement, decision and technical response is explained. Distinguish between the model and the actual barrier.
Outside to the barrier
During a guided tour, scale and location become tangible. Look at the arms, gates and shipping channel, and follow the guide’s safety route.
Climate alongside technology
The presentation links protection to changing conditions. With graphs, check the period, unit and scenario before you draw a conclusion.
Before you go
Open Monday–Friday 10.00–16.00 and Saturday, Sunday and public holidays 11.00–17.00. Scheduled guided tours (instaprondleidingen) must be booked. The restaurant has its own season and schedule. Sources differ on closure on Boxing Day; check 25, 26 and 31 December and 1 January.
