Hoek van Holland Beach

Highlight • Beach

The village of Hoek van Holland, as a sub-municipality of Rotterdam also known as 'Rotterdam aan Zee', was only created during the construction of the Nieuwe Waterweg. The site of the current 'Zuidelijk Strandcentrum' used to be the barracks of the earthworkers who did the excavation work for the canal. After its completion in 1872, they continued to live in their original camp and found work in horticulture or provided the heavy, unskilled labor in building the harbour.

Atlantikwall Museum Hoek van Holland

Highlight • Historical Site

There has been a large German bunker on the Noorderpier of Hoek van Holland since 1943. This bunker, a gun bunker of type 611, was part of the infamous 'Atlantikwall' during the Second World War.

In recent years, this gun bunker has been transformed into the new visitors center by volunteers. In the museum, the story of the Atlantic Wall is told using dioramas, information panels, images and sound material and authentic objects. Guided tours of the former German anti-aircraft battery 'Nordmole' or even other parts of the former 'Fortress Hoek van Holland' are regularly organized.
