Upstairs on the dike, opposite the Dijkgatsbos in the Wieringermeer, is the Huis van Niets. So you immediately have a wide view of the IJsselmeer. No…. none of that. On the sea side: no windows. Because: view distracts. It is precisely because there is nothing that scatters the mind that makes the House of Nothing so incredibly attractive. For reflection, for skilled, for new thoughts! But is that all?

De Samenstroom
Op initiatief van ir. Lely viel in 1930 de Wieringermeerpolder droog. De kerk is in 1938 ontworpen door E.J. Rothuizen en gebouwd door L. Schotte. In 1945 heeft de kerk onder water gestaan omdat de Duitse bezetter de dijk had opgeblazen. De schade was enorm. Na de bevrijding viel de polder eind 1945 voor de tweede keer droog. In 1947 is de kerk herbouwd. In 2002 zijn de Gereformeerde- en Hervormde kerk samen gegaan. Vandaar de naam ‘De Samenstroom’.

Pumping station Leemans Stontelersluis
From 1930, the Leemans pumping station has ensured that the residents of the Wieringermeer keep their feet dry by pumping water from the polder. Until 1997 this was in the IJsselmeer. Because the water in the Wieringermeer is bad for nature and drinking water extraction due to so-called "saline seepage" (seawater that flows into the polder underground), it has been pumped directly into the Wadden Sea since 1997.
