Dronten, Municipality in Flevoland, Netherlands
The municipality of Dronten encompasses three population centers including Biddinghuizen, Swifterbant, and Dronten, spanning across 333 square kilometers of reclaimed land.
Dronten emerged from extensive land reclamation projects in the 1950s, transforming the former Zuiderzee seabed into habitable terrain before its official establishment in 1972.
The municipality maintains international connections through its partnership with Ōgata, Japan, while supporting various community initiatives and hosting the World Scout Jamboree in 1995.
Residents access municipal services at the city hall, which operates from Monday through Friday between 8:30 AM and 4:45 PM, with appointments available through the central number 14 0321.
The entire territory of Dronten sits two meters below sea level, demonstrating the Netherlands' mastery of water management through sophisticated drainage systems.
