Polen, Rural hamlet in Delfzijl, Netherlands.
The settlement spreads along a sleeping dike near Vierburen, featuring former workers' houses against the backdrop of agricultural fields and waterways.
The hamlet received its name due to its remote position relative to other settlements in the former municipality of Bierum during its establishment.
Local residents maintain strong connections to traditional farming practices while adapting to changes brought by nearby industrial developments in Eemshaven.
The settlement connects to surrounding areas through the Tweehuizerweg, with dike passages linking Polen to the neighboring community of Nooitgedacht.
In 2018, residents of Polen demonstrated community solidarity by collectively opposing industrial expansion plans, prioritizing environmental quality over financial compensation.
