Kinderdijk

The Kinderdijk-Elshout mill network is an outstanding man-made landscape. It is located in the north-western comer of the Alblasserwaard. The mills drain the excess water from the Alblasserwaard polders - which are situated below sea-level - after which the water is sluiced into the river Lek (the Rijn). The 19 mills that form this group of monuments are all in operating condition.
