== History == Westerdiepsterdallen was an agricultural community. It used to have three houses, but one burned down in 1956. The fire department had difficulty finding the village, and arrived late. In 1975, one of the farms was squatted by Bonney Brattinga. After three years, he decided to buy the farm. The municipality tried to condemn the village, however Brattinga successfully protested the decision, and remained on his farm even though he had no gas or electricity, and used a water tank. In 1984, Westerdiepsterdallen made the Guinness Book of Records.
