The Hartelkering is a significant piece of hydraulic engineering located in the Netherlands, specifically in the province of South Holland. Completed in 1997, it is part of the Delta Works, which is a series of constructions designed to protect the land from flooding due to the North Sea. The Hartelkering functions as a storm surge barrier that regulates water levels between the Hartelkanaal (a canal) and the nearby sea.
