The KEERSLUIS or lock from 1927 was part of the canalization of the river that once flowed freely into the Zuiderzee. The Nieuwe Lindedijk was constructed in 1828 as a direct consequence of the flood disaster of February 3 and 4, 1825. A single lock was built into the dike. This was converted into a lock in 1870. A service dwelling was built on the north bank, which is still recognizable today. During the canalization, the course of the Linde was moved forty meters further south at this location. In the new course, the current lock with a double passage was built when the Nieuwe Lindedijk was cut through.
