Fort Hinderdam
Dutch Water Defence Lines1996
UNESCO World Heritage
After the Second World War, the forts fell into disrepair. This allowed nature to take over in the more isolated spots, and special nature reserves were formed. Legislation which stipulated that building was not allowed around the forts kept the landscape open and green. Here, man has made a covenant with water and nature.
