Meeting pond Halverwege

Meeting Pond Halverwege is a public meeting place in the making in Vaals, at the boundary between the village and nature. It is conceived as a space for learning, making, and research, with water as its point of departure.

Building on the existing activities of the Institute of Cartopology - Berghut Halverwege, visitors, local residents, pupils and students are invited to actively take part in educational and collaborative activities focused on the water system of South Limburg.

At the heart of the project lies a retention pond. This pond makes the regional water system tangible and legible, while also supporting biodiversity and helping to collect and buffer water at the edge of Vaals.
The project brings together a wide range of partners from education, care, culture, and nature.
