The map
About this Dronten map poster
Dronten stands on land that was seabed until the 1950s, when Eastern Flevoland was drained from the former Zuiderzee. The town was founded in the early 1960s as part of that project. From above it looks exactly like what it is: a planned town surrounded by long, straight canals, dikes and fields laid out with a ruler.
The municipality includes the villages of Biddinghuizen and Swifterbant as well as Dronten itself, all linked by straight roads across the polder. The map is remarkably geometric. Rectangular farm plots, drainage ditches at right angles and tree lines along the roads surround the towns, which sit as compact clusters of streets at planned distances from each other.
At the centre of Dronten stands De Meerpaal, a 1960s cultural centre known for its open, glass-walled design. A Dronten map poster captures how clear this landscape is. Almost every line was drawn by planners and engineers, and the surrounding dikes still mark where the old sea used to be.

Planned town centre
The core of Dronten is compact and carefully arranged. Residential districts are grouped around a central square, with green spaces placed between them.
Drainage canals
Long, straight waterways keep the polder dry and cross the land in parallel lines. They echo the rhythm of the roads and field edges.

Why Dronten
A map that means something
Dronten appeals to anyone who likes clear design. The town and its surroundings were planned from scratch, and every line on the map shows that order. It is a strong choice for people from the polder, or for anyone who admires Dutch planning.
Give the poster your own title, subtitle and coordinates, and choose one of five styles. Blueprint suits the engineered landscape especially well. HD files cost $9 and come in six print sizes, or you can order a printed poster with an optional frame.
