Schokland is a unique and historically significant place located in the province of Flevoland, the Netherlands. This former island in the Zuiderzee (now known as IJsselmeer) has a rich cultural heritage that spans thousands of years. Once a thriving fishing community, Schokland was evacuated in 1859 due to the constant threat of flooding. Today, it stands as a testament to the Dutch people's long struggle against the sea and their innovative water management techniques.

Schokland became the Netherlands' first UNESCO World Heritage site in 1995, recognized for its archaeological, historical, and geological value. The area offers visitors a glimpse into different periods of Dutch history, from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages and the more recent past. The landscape of Schokland, now part of the reclaimed Noordoostpolder, showcases the remarkable transformation of the Dutch landscape through human intervention.

Visitors to Schokland can explore various cultural attractions, including the Schokland Museum, which provides insights into the island's past inhabitants and their way of life. The museum complex includes restored historical buildings, archaeological sites, and exhibitions that highlight the area's unique cultural and natural heritage. The surrounding area also features walking trails that allow visitors to experience the distinctive landscape and learn about the ongoing efforts to preserve this important piece of Dutch history.
