The Bartel lock was built in 1638 in connection with the reclamation of the Enge Wormer, and connected the Westerveer and Enge Wormerringsloot with the Zaan. Initially the lock was called the Westersluis, it is not known when or why this name was changed. The lock was mainly used in the first years by the rusk vendors who transported the Wormer rusk to Amsterdam. With the demise of the Wormer rusk bakery, the significance of the lock also declined. The Bartel lock was filled in in the 60s of the 20th century; the name lives on in the hamlet.

Zwetpad

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful path along De Poel and the Zwet. Frequently walked by residents of Wormer and Trekvogelpad walkers.
You have beautiful views of the high bridges.
The Zwetpad ends or starts at the Poelboerderij. Nice to have a drink or buy a gift in the shop.

De Poelboerderij Visitor Centre

Highlight • Rest Area

The De Poelboerderij foundation in Wormer was established in 1988. A group of involved people from the Zaan region realized that the unique natural and cultural-historical value of the Wormer and Jisperveld was in danger of being lost due to economic factors.

By bringing the beauty and richness of flora and fauna (one of the largest meadow bird breeding areas in north-western Europe) of this area to the attention of a wide audience, the foundation wants to emphasize the unique values of this almost thousand-year-old peat meadow area. hold on. This in collaboration and with the support of the Vereniging voor Natuurmonumenten, the manager of a large part of the Wormer and Jisperveld. Detailed information about the history of De Poelboerderij Visitor Center can be found below.
