The impressive pumping station on the dyke uses electronically driven pumps 24 hours a day to ensure that the inland is adequately drained even during heavy rainfall and storm surges.

Such pumping stations can be found along the North Sea coast.

In the past, the sluice gates simply opened at low tide and the water drained away by itself. The sluice in Hillgroven served as a "drain". Nice to look at.
