Oterdum
This village had unfortunately two reasons to be demolished. Next to the
approaching industry its location right next to the sea dike was a problem
with strengthening and raising the dike to the new 'delta'-height. After
the village had disappeared and the dikeworks completed the gravestones
were replaced, now on top of the dike. |
Old picture of Oterdum which shows it's
position right on the edge of land (picture stolen from VPRO
website). |
The hand holds an image of the church, to
protect the remembrance of the village against the approaching industry |
But it gets a bit sinister if you take a
few steps back |
