On top of the dike is a work of art designed by Hedi Bogaers, entitled Zuudwest. The work of art is a reminder of the storms that can plague Zeeland in the autumn and winter and for many perhaps the most infamous: the one of 1 February 1953. The depicted man and woman symbolise the many times that people have looked anxiously at the water on the dike, but also the tenacity with which man has fought the battle against the water over time.
