Puttershoek was partially flooded during the big North Sea flood of 1953 . After the flood the dike along the Oude Maas was raised . For this , nearly half of the old town ( the Weverseinde dike ) was torn down between 1964 and 1966 . The monumental 17th-century farm '' Rustenburg '' burnt down in 1997 and was demolished
