Schuivenhuisje, Water control structure in Tilligte, Netherlands.

The stone building features segmental arches and a gable roof, designed to regulate water flow in the Almelo-Nordhorn canal.

Built in 1887, this weir served as a crucial control point for maintaining water levels to support navigation through the Almelo-Nordhorn canal.

The structure represents late 19th-century Dutch hydraulic engineering and remains protected under national heritage designation as a Rijksmonument.

Visitors can activate an educational film about the building's history by placing their palm on the right side of the structure.

The building contains original steel sliding gates and an iron lift installation that regulated water flow during dry summer periods.
