The storm surge of 3\u20135 February 1825 ranks among the most severe natural disasters of the 19th century in the Netherlands. It was a classic example of a northwesterly storm coinciding with a high tide, driving water into the Zuiderzee, the Wadden Sea, and connected waterways to dangerous levels. In many places the water rose higher than anything witnessed since the St. Peter\u2019s Flood<\/a> of 1651.<\/p>\n

North Holland was particularly hard hit, with widespread devastation in Waterland and West Friesland. Thousands of houses were damaged or swept away entirely. Polders flooded within a matter of hours, and large numbers of livestock drowned.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom all sides the unfortunate fled to the capital, mostly in small boats, provided with the bare necessities, yet often with nothing preserved but their lives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe City itself, as well as several charitable institutions, opened their buildings for the afflicted. Various municipal warehouses, the Municipal Orphanage, and the Outer Hospital were made available as their shelter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMany could not return to their homes, as the water remained upon the fields for many weeks, and numerous dwellings had collapsed or were uninhabitable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
