zuiderzeemuseum final works

On the 30th of April the 'Waterworks' of the Zuiderzee Museum will be officially inaugurated!

'Waterworks' was designed by Carve in close collaboration with Annemieke Diekman landschapsarchitecten. At this very moment, the final work on the elements is taking place, like the 50 meter long waterstream, jetty, picknick benches and the floating islands.

In a spectacular way, the floating islands were transported from Katwijk through Amsterdam and the Markermeer - by boat.
