Bergen in Zee (English)

Dutch engineering and consultancy firm DHV came up with its project to build a mountain at sea after a challenge issued by author and journalist Thijs Zonneveld in the newspaper Dagblad de
Pers.

The fledgling project has been dubbed ‘Bergen in Zee’ because of its proximity to the seaside town of Bergen aan Zee and because bergen is the Dutch word for mountains. The project stands as a source of inspiration for taking plans for The Dutch Mountain a significant step further. The project is unprecedented in its scale and complexity. DHV’s initial emphasis in this inspiration document is on the sustainability aspects and numerous benefits of Bergen in Zee.
