Brielse Maas

The Brielse Maas is a dammed river branch between the North Sea and the Oude Maas in the southern part of the Dutch province of South Holland. The town of Brielle, which gave it its name, is located on the south bank. Originally the Brielse Maas was part of the Nieuwe Maas: at the Vondelingenplaat the Oude Maas and the Nieuwe Maas came together and split into the Brielse Maas and the Scheur. The Brielse Maas was the main shipping channel and mouth of the Rijn-Maas delta.^[1]
