This mill is located close to another one (http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM8MQK_Buitenwegse_Molen_Maarssen_The_Netherlands) of a different type.
It was built in 1753 and renovated several times, lastly in 1983. It is still in use as a reserve for the engine driven pump.
It can be visited on Saturdays from 10 AM - 5 PM.
