The Biesbosch was originally polder land, but after a storm surge, the area transformed into an inland sea. Water from the Maas and Waal rivers transformed it into a freshwater delta. Sand and river silt formed sandbanks, which were particularly suitable for rushes. Hence the name 'Biesbosch'. When the Haringvliet inlet was later closed off, the large differences between high and low tides disappeared. Nature was given free rein, and the area became wilder. Today, sea eagles and ospreys breed here again. A truly special sight!

The design of almost all the bridges over the canals in Biesbosch is standard – nothing particularly special. However, most offer a nice view of the water.

Flood disaster on the night of January 31 – February 1, 1953 Prince Bernard, Gerben Sonderman (aviator), and Mayor Prinssen on the steps of the town hall, February 10, 1953. 2019 marks the 66th anniversary of the catastrophic flood that struck the southwest Netherlands. Dikes breached in many places, and within moments, large parts of Zeeland, North Brabant, and South Holland were underwater. More than 1,800 people died, and over 100,000 residents lost their homes. The disaster continues to deeply impact the identity, culture, and development of Dutch society to this day. Sadly, the disaster also affected our village. Dozens of houses in Raamsdonksveer were destroyed or severely damaged (Boterpolder, Sandoel, and Keizersdijk). More than 75% of the built-up and undeveloped areas of Raamsdonksveer were flooded. Approximately 2,000 residents were forced to evacuate their homes during the disaster. Fortunately, no one drowned in our village. However, a resident of Raamsdonksveer, Mr. Sjef Pols, of Sandoel 41, died of cardiac arrest at 3:00 PM on February 1st during rescue efforts and while carrying sandbags in the immediate vicinity of his home. Possibly near the barn belonging to Berende, located opposite his home and Staps bakery at Sandoel 43. Mr. Pols is honored on the memorial wall of the Flood Museum in Ouwerkerk. On February 10th, Prince Bernhard visited our village by helicopter. Photos of our village in the first days after the disaster were shared throughout the Netherlands and the world.
