The horseback shrimp fishermen of Oostduinkerke, Belgium
Description Once a popular form of fishing in certain areas of France, Holland and England, Oostduinkerke is the only place left in the world where the 500 year old tradition of shrimp fishing on horseback is still in practice.Shrimp fishermen sit in wooden saddles on their horses, which drag large nets behind them. Draft horses famous for their enormous strength, such as the Brabant, are used for this task. The catch is then transported through the streets of Oostduinkerke on carts.
In December 2013 Unesco recognized shrimpfishing on horseback as intangible cultural heritage. ·
