🎧  Listen to Introduction

The facilities in the Kinderdijk-Elshout area admirably demonstrate the outstanding contribution of the Dutch people to water technology. The construction of hydraulic works for land drainage for agriculture and settlement began in the Middle Ages and continues to this day. The site displays all the typical features associated with this technology - dikes, reservoirs, pumping stations, administrative buildings and a series of well-preserved windmills.
