    Gemaal Drie Grote Polders in the Hikkepolder near Oud-Vossemeer is a steam pumping station on the island of Tholen. The pumping station was built in the year 1900 and was the first steam pumping station on the island. From here, the polder water could be discharged into the Eendracht, the water between the island of Tholen and North Brabant. The pumping station was in use until 1957.

    In 1736 a culvert with a memorial stone was built in the Hikkepolder. In 1975 the function of the pumping station was taken over by new diesel pumping stations. The pumping station was completely renovated in 2005 and can be used again in case of calamities. A few years later, the outflow construction and the brick bar were completely renewed.
