The remarkable farm is situated behind the sea dike near Hindeloopen and Workum. It has the same shape and size as a traditional farm, but upside down with the ridge on the ground. The reasons is primarily practical. The owners wanted to be able to look over the dike and see the IJsselmeer from the farm.
