The Pole screen of Urk

The old seawall of Urk?
Not strictly speaking. After the reclamation, the old seawall of Urk was demolished at a rapid pace, just like the seawall of Schokland. Much of the wood was burnt by the population during the war years, who had to deal with a shortage of fuels.

The current pole screen is therefore a replica, built between 1974 and 1979.

The post screen is 1,196 meters in total, divided into twelve sections. On the one hand, it starts behind the fire station on De Noord and on the other at the Maranathakerk. It concerns three long sections, up to a maximum of 242 meters and nine shorter sections, the shortest of which measures 31 meters.
