Paezemerlannen


Paezemerlannen is an area, 164 ha., outside the Deltadyke in northeast Friesland, the Netherlands, northeast of the village Peasens/Moddergat. The southern part of the area is still a polder, and the northern part was a polder from 1951 till 1973, when a storm led to a dykebreak and outpoldering of the polder.
At the westside of the area is a breakwater. The sea arrives wwith very high water, during storms, in the whole area through culverts in the dyke north of the Deltadyke. Those culverts function normally as polder-dewatering-openings.
