Historical interpretation: In the last century, the inhabitants of Wemeldinge lived from agriculture, fishing and oyster farming, but also from parlevinke. The inland skippers who were waiting in the lock at the time could do their shopping at the parlevinkers, sailing shops. In 1992, the Canal was widened through Zuid-Beveland and bypassed Wemeldinge. The locks at Wemeldinge lost their function and trade on the water disappeared.
