Johannes Kerkhovenpolder

Description

De Johannes Kerkhovenpolder is een in de jaren 1875 en 1876 ingepolderd gebied van de Dollard, gelegen in de gemeente Eemsdelta in het noordoosten van de Nederlandse provincie Groningen. De dichtstbijzijnde plaats is Woldendorp. Tot 1990 behoorde de polder tot de gemeente Termunten. De gronden voor de inpoldering werden aangekocht door de Amsterdamse bankier Johannes Kerkhoven. Kerkhoven had ambitieuze plannen om een groot gedeelte van de Dollard in te polderen. In tegenstelling tot oudere inpolderingen werd niet gewacht tot de kweldervorming zo ver was gevorderd dat deze niet meer bij hoogwater onderstroomde. De polder werd al in een vroegere fase ingedijkt.
