Aftermath

After the disaster, there was extensive damage. Slowly, the extent of the consequences became clear. People had lost everything. Entire families had vanished in the waves. The same applied to buildings, fields, and thousands of animals.

"It was a pitiful sight to look from the dry village onto the walls and see your house still submerged in the water."
Mr. J.A. van Langen from Zierikzee
