The Woudagemaal is a pumping station in the Netherlands. It was opened in 1920 and is the largest steam-pumping station ever built is still operational. It was built to pump excess water out of Friesland, a province in the north of the Netherlands. It represents the high point of the contribution made by Dutch engineers and architects in protecting the people and land of the Netherlands against the natural forces of water. In 1998 the Woudagemaal was added to the list of UNESCO World heritage sites.
