WIPWATERMOLEN IN GORINCHEM
De molens (West- en Oostmolen) zijn respectievelijk in 1814 & 1817 herbouwd. Hun voorgangers werden door Franse troepen in brand gestoken en men hoopte het alleen met de Westmolen af te kunnen. Dit bleek niet het geval daarom herbouwde men in 1817 ook de Oostmolen. In 1973 werd de gemeente Gorinchem eigenaar.
De molen is in 1981 rechtgezet en heeft een vrijwel nieuw bovenhuis gekregen.

De molen is sinds 2017 eigendom van SIMAV (visit link)

SEESAW MILL IN GORINCHEM
The mills (West and East Mill) were rebuilt in 1814 & 1817 respectively. Their predecessors were set on fire by French troops and it was hoped to make do with the West Mill alone. This turned out not to be the case, so the East Mill was also rebuilt in 1817. In 1973, the municipality of Gorinchem became the owner.
The mill was straightened in 1981 and given an almost new upper house.

Since 2017, the mill has been owned by SIMAV (visit link)
