At Studio Blank, the legacy of sculptor Hans Blank (1952-2019) will be preserved and continued. Hans lived and worked in Den Oever and in Ireland. In addition to the Fishery Monument on the dike of Den Oever, he also made the Viking ship on the Havenweg near the VIC. The maritime and related myths and legends were central to his work.

discover ‘hidden’ Waddeneiland Wieringen
- Location
- Den Oever
Walking route of Landscape North Holland. Wieringen is a "hidden" Wadden Island full of traces of the last ice age. Due to the closure of the Amsteldiep in 1924, the construction of the Afsluitdijk and the Wieringermeerpolder, Wieringen became part of the Noordkop. But it is still full of hidden stories, old villages, height differences, hollow roads, extensive meadows. Incidentally, the dog is allowed on a lead.
