De geest van Cornelis Lely op de Nachtmarkt Kolhorn

Kolhorn

In illuminated Kolhorn, history comes to life. Meet the spirit of Cornelis Lely and help piece together new land.

Take a look

During the Kolhorn Night Market, a special guest wanders through the historic village: the ghost of Cornelis Lely. In this interactive mobile act, the creator of the Zuiderzee Works comes to life once again.

With a cargo bike, a wooden map of the Netherlands, and a generous dose of theatrical flair, he invites visitors to reconstruct the history of the Zuiderzee together. Answer questions, solve puzzles, and watch how the wild sea slowly transforms into reclaimed land.

Not a dusty history lesson, but a playful experience for young and old. A visual street act that sparks curiosity, starts conversations, and makes visitors themselves part of the story of the Netherlands, water, and new land.
