Tips
The Great Mandrake:
Fateful floods in 1362 and 1634
In 1362 and 1634, two devastating storm surges devastated the North Sea coast, known as the Grote Mandränke - the great drowning. They are reshaping the coastline. “If you don’t want to dike, you have to give way.” This insight has been valid in the North Sea for centuries.
