The Paleogeography map takes you on a journey through 11,000 years of Dutch landscape history. It shows how rivers, seas, peat bogs, and coastlines have shifted over time, shaping the Netherlands long before it became the country we know today. With each map layer, you step into a different era, seeing how land and water interacted in the deep past.
