The fisherman’s wife, waiting in vain… A monument in memory of the Moddergat Fishing Disaster.
In the 19th century, Paesens-Moddergat had a large fishing fleet, but on the night of 5 to 6 March 1883 disaster struck: during a severe storm, 83 villagers from Paesens-Moddergat lost their lives. In almost every household, one or more people were mourned…
A good combination with a visit to museum ’t Fiskershúske, and of course a walk along the sea dike to De Paezemerlannen!
