Dijkdoorbraak
Weet jij wat er honderd jaar geleden gebeurde in de oudejaarsnacht? Op 31 december 1925 brak de Maasdijk door bij Nederasselt. Het water stroomde het Land van Maas en Waal in. Dorpen in vijf gemeenten werden verrast door het water. Huizen verdwenen onder water en mensen moesten vluchten. Na enkele dagen begon het streng te vriezen. Drijvende ijsschotsen zorgden voor nog meer schade aan huizen en land.
Wel of geen ramp?
De Nederlandse regering noemde het geen nationale ramp. Daarom was er geen geld van de overheid. De inwoners moesten het zelf oplossen. Ontdek hoe het hele land geld inzamelde en de noodhulp op gang kwam.
Wat zou jij doen?
Wat doe jij als nu de dijken doorbreken? Ben je voorbereid? De tentoonstelling laat zien hoe we toen én nu leven met water. Welke keuzes maken we? Hoe houden we ons gebied veilig tegen water?
