The Netherlands-Bakkum-Noord
What looks like an ordinary road -between Bakkum-Noord and Limmen- is in fact probably the oldest dyke in the province North-Holland, north of the North Sea Canal. It dates from the second half of the 11th centrury, or perhaps the beginning of the 12th century. It was constructed by order of the Egmond abbey. But it did not stop the flooding in this area; a former beach plain.
