IJsselmeer dike between Edam and Warder. From Wikipedia

The Moordenaarsbraak is the remains of one of the many dike breaches in North Holland caused by flooding of the Zuiderzee. Between Edam and Hoorn, the IJsselmeer dike owes its winding shape to the dike breaches, which the dike was then built around. The Moordenaarsbraak probably originated in the period between 1775 and 1849.[1] The Moordenaarsbraak is a more or less circular water area, which is bordered by a reed collar. The Moordenaarsbraak has been designated as a provincial monument because it is seen as a "defining element in the North Holland Polder landscape".[2] The name Moordenaarsbraak refers to the violence of the sea, which caused people in the area to be murdered.[3] The nature reserve is managed by Staatsbosbeheer. Just south of the Moordenaarsbraak are the Groote Braak and the Kleine Braak and just north of the Zandbraak and the Hogendijkerbraak, all located within a distance of approximately 5 kilometers along the IJs

The marsh endive is a pioneer plant of drying areas and has its distribution center in the Netherlands. Outside Europe, this annual plant occurs in Siberia and Alaska. The number of marsh endives varies annually depending on conditions. Due to the reclamation of the IJsselmeer polders, its distribution area has increased, and it occurs every year in the Oostvaardersplassen and in large numbers on the Marker Wadden. Although the plant is on the Dutch red list and shows a decreasing trend, it is rare to very rare in Belgium. Before 1955 it was considered extinct in Belgium, but after the construction of the IJsselmeer polders it is occasionally seen again there.

“The Wave” is a memorial monument in memory of the storm surge on the night of January 13 to 14, 1916, in which 19 people (including 16 people on the then island of Marken) were killed. The monument was created by Linda Verkaaik in 2016. It is made of steel and consists of life-sized people on a boat who cry out for attention and help with outstretched arms. The sofa, which is attached to it, offers a beautiful view over the Gouwzee.
