Remains of the wave machine

Unique in the world at the time! A mechanical wave maker that could make waves of different shapes and sizes.

The machine has been repainted. It should run again on some dates.

Deep in the Hoge Kempen landscape lie the silent remains of the so-called "wavemaker." This mysterious construction recalls a time when technology and industry strongly influenced the region. What was once an impressive installation designed to generate movement and power is now a ruin slowly being reclaimed by nature. Amidst the moss, weathered stones, and metal remains, you can feel the echo of a bygone era. The wavemaker thus forms an intriguing place where heritage and nature converge, and where visitors can wonder what stories the place still holds.
