Everything about Het Scheur totally explained
Het Scheur (Dutch for "The Rip") is a branch of the
Rhine-
Meuse delta in South Holland, the Netherlands, that flows west from the
confluence of the
Oude Maas and
Nieuwe Maas branches past the towns of
Rozenburg and
Maassluis. It continues as the
Nieuwe Waterweg (New Waterway) to the North Sea.
Originally, Het Scheur was the northern branch of the river around Rozenburg island and curved south a few kilometres past Maassluis to join the Nieuwe Maas again in the Maasmond ("Mouth of Meuse")
estuary near
Den Briel. When the Nieuwe Waterweg was completed in 1872, Het Scheur was dammed off and connected to the east end of the Nieuwe Waterweg to form the new
channelized main mouth of the Rhine-Meuse delta.
