At fort Loevestein the Waal and the Meuse traditionally came together to proceed to the sea as the Merwede. It was always an important military point of castles, forts, fortified towns and fortresses. To give the river more space, the dike at Munnikenland will be relocated and a secondary channel will be constructed. New developed nature areas fit well with the botanical rich Bloemplaat and the grazed area of Loevestein.
