This mill was built in 1801 and is currently owned by the community of Reimerswaal.

It's ususally open to the public on saturday's, from 1300 till 1700.
In case of sufficient wind, the mill is activated.

The reason why there are so many mills built in the area, is the specifications of the soil, which seems to be excellent to cultivate wheat.

There also used to be a multi-cache in the vicinity.
