The IJsselmeer is the largest lake in the Netherlands. Today's freshwater lake, artificially created by dyking, consists of a large part of the former Zuiderzee bay between Friesland and Noord-Holland. The word sea has the meaning of "inland lake" in Dutch (as in Low German). The lake is named after its main tributary, the IJssel, which flows into the Ketelmeer tributary below Kampen. The second largest tributary, the Zwarte Water, flows into the connected lake Zwarte Meer.

Dutch Steam Engine Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

In the historic steam lift "Four Noorder Koggen" is now the Dutch Steam Engine Museum. Here, not only steam engines from industry and shipping are exhibited and partly still operated, you also learn a lot about land reclamation. With the pumps in the steam lift, the water was pumped out within the Omringdijk and thus wrested from the sea.

Opening times and further information can be found at stoommachinemuseum.nl/deutsch.
